VU#194238: Apple Mac OS X Safari fails to properly display URLs in the status bar
Apple Mac OS X Safari fails to properly display URLs in the status bar.

VU#240174: Oracle9i Database contains buffer overflow in TIME_ZONE session parameter
Oracle9i Database contains a buffer overflow in the TIME_ZONE session parameter which could allow anyone who can query the server to execute arbitrary code or access data with the privileges of the vulnerable process.

VU#399806: Oracle9i Database contains buffer overflow in FROM_TZ() function
Oracle9i Database contains a buffer overflow in the FROM_TZ() function which could allow anyone who can query the server to execute arbitrary code or access data with the privileges of the vulnerable process.

VU#445214: Microsoft Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) fails to properly validate the length of specially crafted packets
Microsoft Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) fails to properly validate the length of specially crafted packets which could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service condition.

VU#460350: Apple Quicktime/Darwin Streaming Server fails to properly parse DESCRIBE requests
Apple Quicktime/Darwin Streaming Server fails to properly parse DESCRIBE requests containing overly large User-Agent fields. This could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service condition.

VU#513062: metamail contains multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities
Multiple buffer overflows in the metamail package could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system. An attacker may be able to exploit these vulnerabilities via a specially-crafted email message.

VU#518518: metamail contains multiple format string vulnerabilities
Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the metamail package could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system. An attacker may be able to exploit these vulnerabilities via a specially-crafted email message.

VU#578886: Apple Mac OS X contains a vulnerability in DiskArbitration when initializing writable removable media
Apple Mac OS X contains a vulnerability in DiskArbitration when initializing writable removable media.

VU#619982: Zone Labs desktop security products fail to properly validate RCPT TO command argument
