Description:
Andrew Christensen has reported some vulnerabilities in IBM Lotus Domino, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors in tunekrnl, which is setuid "root". This can be exploited to cause buffer overflows by passing overly long input to the program.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code with "root" privileges.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 6.x and 7.x for Linux on zSeries and version 7.x for Linux on x86 platforms.
