| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2008-09-04 | CVE-2007-6716 | fs/direct-io.c in the dio subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23 does not properly zero out the dio struct, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS), as demonstrated by a certain fio test. | 5.5 |
| 2008-08-27 | CVE-2008-3281 | XML Entity Expansion vulnerability in multiple products libxml2 2.6.32 and earlier does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion in an attribute value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document. | 6.5 |
| 2008-08-12 | CVE-2008-3275 | Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in multiple products The (1) real_lookup and (2) __lookup_hash functions in fs/namei.c in the vfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25.15 do not prevent creation of a child dentry for a deleted (aka S_DEAD) directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service ("overflow" of the UBIFS orphan area) via a series of attempted file creations within deleted directories. | 5.5 |
| 2008-07-18 | CVE-2008-2934 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products Mozilla Firefox 3 before 3.0.1 on Mac OS X allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted GIF file that triggers a free of an uninitialized pointer. | 8.8 |
| 2008-07-09 | CVE-2008-2931 | Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in multiple products The do_change_type function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not verify that the caller has the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service by modifying the properties of a mountpoint. | 7.8 |
| 2008-07-09 | CVE-2008-2812 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) ppp_async.c, (5) ppp_synctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25_asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/. | 7.8 |
| 2008-05-13 | CVE-2008-0166 | Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) vulnerability in multiple products OpenSSL 0.9.8c-1 up to versions before 0.9.8g-9 on Debian-based operating systems uses a random number generator that generates predictable numbers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force guessing attacks against cryptographic keys. | 7.5 |
| 2008-05-07 | CVE-2008-2108 | Insufficient Entropy vulnerability in multiple products The GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP 4.x before 4.4.8 and 5.x before 5.2.5, when running on 64-bit systems, performs a multiplication that generates a portion of zero bits during conversion due to insufficient precision, which produces 24 bits of entropy and simplifies brute force attacks against protection mechanisms that use the rand and mt_rand functions. | 9.8 |
| 2008-05-05 | CVE-2008-0599 | Incorrect Calculation of Buffer Size vulnerability in multiple products The init_request_info function in sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c in PHP before 5.2.6 does not properly consider operator precedence when calculating the length of PATH_TRANSLATED, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted URI. | 9.8 |
| 2008-03-19 | CVE-2008-0063 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products The Kerberos 4 support in KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5kdc) does not properly clear the unused portion of a buffer when generating an error message, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, aka "Uninitialized stack values." | 7.5 |
