**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** AIX versions 4.3 through 5.2 **Description** A buffer overflow issue exists in the libIM library for National Language Support on AIX. This allows local users to potentially gain privileges through various attack vectors, including the use of a long -im argument to aixterm. **Recommendations** For AIX versions 4.3 through 5.2, consider restricting access to the aixterm command and limiting the use of the -im argument to prevent potential exploitation of the buffer overflow issue in the libIM library.
