A remote attacker could send a specially crafted message and cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-4623) The compat_sys_mount function allowed local users to cause a denial of service when mounting a smbfs filesystem in compatibility mode. (CVE-2006-7203) The Omnikey CardMan 4040 driver (cm4040_cs) did not limit the size of buffers passed to read() and write(). A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. (CVE-2007-0005) Due to an variable handling flaw in the ipv6_getsockopt_sticky() function a local attacker could exploit the getsockopt() calls to read arbitrary kernel memory. This could disclose sensitive data. (CVE-2007-1000) Ilja van Sprundel discovered that Bluetooth setsockopt calls could leak kernel memory contents via an uninitialized stack buffer. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to view sensitive kernel information. (CVE-2007-1353) A flaw was discovered in the handling of netlink messages. Local attackers could cause infinite recursion leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-1861) The random number generator was hashing a subset of the available entropy, leading to slightly less random numbers. Additionally, systems without an entropy source would be seeded with the same inputs at boot time, leading to a repeatable series of random numbers. (CVE-2007-2453) A flaw was discovered in the PPP over Ethernet implementation. Local attackers could manipulate ioctls and cause kernel memory consumption leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-2525) An integer underflow was discovered in the cpuset filesystem. If mounted, local attackers could obtain kernel memory using large file offsets while reading the tasks file. This could disclose sensitive data. (CVE-2007-2875) Vilmos Nebehaj discovered that the SCTP netfilter code did not correctly validate certain states. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted packet causing a denial of service. (CVE-2007-2876) Luca Tettamanti discovered a flaw in the VFAT compat ioctls on 64-bit systems. A local attacker could corrupt a kernel_dirent struct and cause a denial of service. (CVE-2007-2878) A flaw was discovered in the cluster manager. A remote attacker could connect to the DLM port and block further DLM operations. (CVE-2007-3380) A flaw was discovered in the usblcd driver. A local attacker could cause large amounts of kernel memory consumption, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-3513).

Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 28090 published 2007-11-10 reporter Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2007-2019 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2007-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/28090 title Ubuntu 6.06 LTS : linux-source-2.6.15 vulnerability (USN-489-1) NASL family Mandriva Local Security Checks NASL id MANDRAKE_MDKSA-2006-182.NASL description A number of vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel : Stephane Eranian discovered an issue with permon2.0 where, under certain circumstances, the perfmonctl() system call may not correctly manage the file descriptor reference count, resulting in the system possibly running out of file structure (CVE-2006-3741). Prior to and including 2.6.17, the Universal Disk Format (UDF) filesystem driver allowed local users to cause a DoS (hang and crash) via certain operations involving truncated files (CVE-2006-4145). Various versions of the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a DoS (crash) via an SCTP socket with a certain SO_LINGER value, which is possibly related to the patch used to correct CVE-2006-3745 (CVE-2006-4535). The Unidirectional Lightweight Encapsulation (ULE) decapsulation component in the dvb driver allows remote attackers to cause a DoS (crash) via an SNDU length of 0 in a ULE packet (CVE-2006-4623). The provided packages are patched to fix these vulnerabilities. All users are encouraged to upgrade to these updated kernels immediately and reboot to effect the fixes. In addition to these security fixes, other fixes have been included such as : - added support for new devices: o NetXtreme BCM5715 gigabit ethernet o NetXtreme II BCM5708 gigabit ethernet - enabled the CISS driver for Xen kernels - updated ich8 support in ata_piix - enabled support for 1078 type controller in megaraid_sas - multiple fixes for RSBAC support To update your kernel, please follow the directions located at : http://www.mandriva.com/en/security/kernelupdate last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 24567 published 2007-02-18 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2007-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/24567 title Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : kernel (MDKSA-2006:182) NASL family SuSE Local Security Checks NASL id SUSE_KERNEL-DEBUG-2393.NASL description This kernel update fixes the following security problems : - A bug within the UDF filesystem that caused machine hangs when truncating files on the filesystem was fixed.
