DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-06-30 CVE-2016-4472 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The overflow protection in Expat is removed by compilers with certain optimization settings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted XML data.

2016-06-27 CVE-2016-5829 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the hiddev_ioctl_usage function in drivers/hid/usbhid/hiddev.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 allow local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted (1) HIDIOCGUSAGES or (2) HIDIOCSUSAGES ioctl call.

2016-06-27 CVE-2016-5828 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The start_thread function in arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 on powerpc platforms mishandles transactional state, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid process state or TM Bad Thing exception, and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by starting and suspending a transaction before an exec system call.

2016-06-27 CVE-2016-1583 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The ecryptfs_privileged_open function in fs/ecryptfs/kthread.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.3 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (stack memory consumption) via vectors involving crafted mmap calls for /proc pathnames, leading to recursive pagefault handling.

2016-06-16 CVE-2016-5300 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in multiple products
The XML parser in Expat does not use sufficient entropy for hash initialization, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted identifiers in an XML document.
7.5
2016-06-14 CVE-2016-5338 The (1) esp_reg_read and (2) esp_reg_write functions in hw/scsi/esp.c in QEMU allow local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (QEMU process crash) or execute arbitrary code on the QEMU host via vectors related to the information transfer buffer.
