Multiple buffer overflows in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allow local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors related to the (1) lchangevg, (2) ldeletepv, (3) putlvodm, (4) lvaryoffvg, and (5) lvgenminor programs in bos.rte.lvm; and the (6) tellclvmd program in bos.clvm.enh.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
