| CVE-2012-0035 | 2 Eric M Ludlam, Gnu | 2 Cedet, Emacs | 2025-04-11 | 9.3 HIGH | N/A |
| Untrusted search path vulnerability in EDE in CEDET before 1.0.1, as used in GNU Emacs before 23.4 and other products, allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted Lisp expression in a Project.ede file in the directory, or a parent directory, of an opened file. | |||||
| CVE-2012-3479 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2025-04-11 | 6.8 MEDIUM | N/A |
| lisp/files.el in Emacs 23.2, 23.3, 23.4, and 24.1 automatically executes eval forms in local-variable sections when the enable-local-variables option is set to :safe, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary Emacs Lisp code via a crafted file. | |||||

| lib-src/movemail.c in movemail in emacs 22 and 23 allows local users to read, modify, or delete arbitrary mailbox files via a symlink attack, related to improper file-permission checks. | |||||

| The hack-local-variables function in Emacs before 22.2, when enable-local-variables is set to :safe, does not properly search lists of unsafe or risky variables, which might allow user-assisted attackers to bypass intended restrictions and modify critical program variables via a file containing a Local variables declaration. | |||||
| CVE-2007-2833 | 3 Debian, Gnu, Mandrakesoft | 4 Debian Linux, Emacs, Mandrake Linux and 1 more | 2025-04-09 | 7.8 HIGH | N/A |

| Stack-based buffer overflow in emacs allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly have unspecified other impact via a large precision value in an integer format string specifier to the format function, as demonstrated via a certain "emacs -batch -eval" command line. | |||||
