Vulnerabilities

DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8646 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The hash_accept function in crypto/algif_hash.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by attempting to trigger use of in-kernel hash algorithms for a socket that has received zero bytes of data.

low complexity
linux CWE-476
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8645 Improper Access Control vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The TCP stack in the Linux kernel before 4.8.10 mishandles skb truncation, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted application that makes sendto system calls, related to net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c and net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c.

low complexity
linux CWE-284
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8633 Improper Access Control vulnerability in Linux Kernel
drivers/firewire/net.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.7, in certain unusual hardware configurations, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted fragmented packets.
low complexity
linux CWE-284
6.8
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8632 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The tipc_msg_build function in net/tipc/msg.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 does not validate the relationship between the minimum fragment length and the maximum packet size, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.

low complexity
linux CWE-119
7.8
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8630 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The x86_decode_insn function in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.7, when KVM is enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) via a certain use of a ModR/M byte in an undefined instruction.

low complexity
linux CWE-476
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2015-8970 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
crypto/algif_skcipher.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.2 does not verify that a setkey operation has been performed on an AF_ALG socket before an accept system call is processed, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted application that does not supply a key, related to the lrw_crypt function in crypto/lrw.c.

low complexity
linux CWE-476
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2015-1328 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
The overlayfs implementation in the linux (aka Linux kernel) package before 3.19.0-21.21 in Ubuntu through 15.04 does not properly check permissions for file creation in the upper filesystem directory, which allows local users to obtain root access by leveraging a configuration in which overlayfs is permitted in an arbitrary mount namespace.

canonical linux CWE-264
7.8
2016-11-25 CVE-2016-2929 Improper Access Control vulnerability in IBM Bigfix Remote Control 9.1.2
IBM BigFix Remote Control before 9.1.3 does not properly restrict password choices, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access via a brute-force approach.
network
high complexity
ibm CWE-284
8.1
2016-11-25 CVE-2016-2928 Information Exposure Through Log Files vulnerability in IBM Bigfix Remote Control 9.1.2
IBM BigFix Remote Control before 9.1.3 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by reading error logs.
network
low complexity
ibm CWE-532
4.3
2016-11-25 CVE-2016-2927 Information Exposure vulnerability in IBM Bigfix Remote Control 9.1.2
IBM BigFix Remote Control before 9.1.3 does not properly restrict the set of available encryption algorithms, which makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by sniffing the network and performing calculations on encrypted data.
network
high complexity
ibm CWE-200
