DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2018-01-04 CVE-2017-5753 Information Exposure Through Discrepancy vulnerability in multiple products
Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis.

2018-01-04 CVE-2017-5715 Information Exposure Through Discrepancy vulnerability in multiple products
Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and indirect branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis.
5.6
2018-01-03 CVE-2017-18017 Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products
The tcpmss_mangle_packet function in net/netfilter/xt_TCPMSS.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11, and 4.9.x before 4.9.36, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the presence of xt_TCPMSS in an iptables action.

2017-12-20 CVE-2017-17806 Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in multiple products
The HMAC implementation (crypto/hmac.c) in the Linux kernel before 4.14.8 does not validate that the underlying cryptographic hash algorithm is unkeyed, allowing a local attacker able to use the AF_ALG-based hash interface (CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH) and the SHA-3 hash algorithm (CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA3) to cause a kernel stack buffer overflow by executing a crafted sequence of system calls that encounter a missing SHA-3 initialization.
7.8
2017-12-20 CVE-2017-17805 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the Linux kernel before 4.14.8 does not correctly handle zero-length inputs, allowing a local attacker able to use the AF_ALG-based skcipher interface (CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_SKCIPHER) to cause a denial of service (uninitialized-memory free and kernel crash) or have unspecified other impact by executing a crafted sequence of system calls that use the blkcipher_walk API.
7.8
2017-12-11 CVE-2017-1000407 Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in multiple products
The Linux Kernel 2.6.32 and later are affected by a denial of service, by flooding the diagnostic port 0x80 an exception can be triggered leading to a kernel panic.
7.4
2017-12-06 CVE-2017-13168 Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in multiple products
An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the kernel scsi driver.

2017-12-05 CVE-2017-15868 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The bnep_add_connection function in net/bluetooth/bnep/core.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19 does not ensure that an l2cap socket is available, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application.

2017-11-15 CVE-2017-15115 Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products
The sctp_do_peeloff function in net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14 does not check whether the intended netns is used in a peel-off action, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls.

2017-11-15 CVE-2017-15102 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
The tower_probe function in drivers/usb/misc/legousbtower.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.1 allows local users (who are physically proximate for inserting a crafted USB device) to gain privileges by leveraging a write-what-where condition that occurs after a race condition and a NULL pointer dereference.
