Here is a rough breakdown of the flaws grouped by type.  The official

Malformed web content could result in the execution of arbitrary commands

Comment 5 Josh Bressers 2007-10-17 21:18:19 UTC
It should be noted that the sftp flaw does not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux
2.1 or 3.  The sftp protocol handler is not supported on those platforms.

Comment 6 Josh Bressers 2007-10-18 14:13:05 UTC
CVE-2007-5336 should not be used.  That bug is really part of the CVE-2007-5339
CVE id.
