DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2009-11-20 CVE-2009-4004 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Buffer overflow in the kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_setup_mce function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges via a KVM_X86_SETUP_MCE IOCTL request that specifies a large number of Machine Check Exception (MCE) banks.

2009-11-20 CVE-2009-3553 Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products
Use-after-free vulnerability in the abstract file-descriptor handling interface in the cupsdDoSelect function in scheduler/select.c in the scheduler in cupsd in CUPS 1.3.7 and 1.3.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash or hang) via a client disconnection during listing of a large number of print jobs, related to improperly maintaining a reference count.
7.5
2009-11-16 CVE-2009-3939 Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in multiple products
The poll_mode_io file for the megaraid_sas driver in the Linux kernel 2.6.31.6 and earlier has world-writable permissions, which allows local users to change the I/O mode of the driver by modifying this file.
7.1
2009-11-11 CVE-2009-3129 Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in Microsoft products
Microsoft Office Excel 2002 SP3, 2003 SP3, and 2007 SP1 and SP2; Office 2004 and 2008 for Mac; Open XML File Format Converter for Mac; Office Excel Viewer 2003 SP3; Office Excel Viewer SP1 and SP2; and Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats SP1 and SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a spreadsheet with a FEATHEADER record containing an invalid cbHdrData size element that affects a pointer offset, aka "Excel Featheader Record Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

2009-11-04 CVE-2009-3547 Operation on a Resource after Expiration or Release vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple race conditions in fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc6 allow local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or gain privileges by attempting to open an anonymous pipe via a /proc/*/fd/ pathname.
7.0
2009-10-26 CVE-2009-3611 Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in multiple products
common/snapshots.py in Back In Time (aka backintime) 0.9.26 changes certain permissions to 0777 before deleting the files in an old backup snapshot, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading these files, or interfere with backup integrity by modifying files that are shared across snapshots.

2009-10-22 CVE-2009-3621 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
net/unix/af_unix.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.31.4 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) by creating an abstract-namespace AF_UNIX listening socket, performing a shutdown operation on this socket, and then performing a series of connect operations to this socket.
5.5
2009-10-22 CVE-2009-3620 Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products
The ATI Rage 128 (aka r128) driver in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-git11 does not properly verify Concurrent Command Engine (CCE) state initialization, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified ioctl calls.
