Arguably only one of the above is a basic vulnerability (and even that is probably debatable) -- the other three are just examples of one or other basic types (and two of them are probably examples of the same basic type). Try to get hold of the RISOS Project report(s) or sources that summarize that work. Any good, basic CompSec textbook should cover this stuff, BUT there is more than one widely referenced comprehensive categorization of basic security errors, so you should probably check around a bit...
