|---|---|---|---|
| 2023-12-12 | CVE-2023-5536 | Incorrect Default Permissions vulnerability in Canonical Ubuntu Linux A feature in LXD (LP#1829071), affects the default configuration of Ubuntu Server which allows privileged users in the lxd group to escalate their privilege to root without requiring a sudo password. | 6.4 |
| 2017-12-05 | CVE-2016-1252 | Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in multiple products The apt package in Debian jessie before 1.0.9.8.4, in Debian unstable before 1.4~beta2, in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS before 1.0.1ubuntu2.17, in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS before 1.2.15ubuntu0.2, and in Ubuntu 16.10 before 1.3.2ubuntu0.1 allows man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass a repository-signing protection mechanism by leveraging improper error handling when validating InRelease file signatures. | 4.3 |
| 2017-07-25 | CVE-2017-7980 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Heap-based buffer overflow in Cirrus CLGD 54xx VGA Emulator in Quick Emulator (Qemu) 2.8 and earlier allows local guest OS users to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to a VNC client updating its display after a VGA operation. | 4.6 |
| 2017-06-08 | CVE-2017-9022 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products The gmp plugin in strongSwan before 5.5.3 does not properly validate RSA public keys before calling mpz_powm_sec, which allows remote peers to cause a denial of service (floating point exception and process crash) via a crafted certificate. | 7.5 |
| 2017-06-01 | CVE-2017-8386 | git-shell in git before 2.4.12, 2.5.x before 2.5.6, 2.6.x before 2.6.7, 2.7.x before 2.7.5, 2.8.x before 2.8.5, 2.9.x before 2.9.4, 2.10.x before 2.10.3, 2.11.x before 2.11.2, and 2.12.x before 2.12.3 might allow remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a repository name that starts with a - (dash) character. | 8.8 |
| 2017-05-12 | CVE-2017-8900 | Local Security Bypass vulnerability in LightDM LightDM through 1.22.0, when systemd is used in Ubuntu 16.10 and 17.x, allows physically proximate attackers to bypass intended AppArmor restrictions and visit the home directories of arbitrary users by establishing a guest session. | 2.1 |
| 2017-04-14 | CVE-2016-6489 | Information Exposure Through Discrepancy vulnerability in multiple products The RSA and DSA decryption code in Nettle makes it easier for attackers to discover private keys via a cache side channel attack. | 5.0 |
| 2017-04-05 | CVE-2017-7358 | Path Traversal vulnerability in multiple products In LightDM through 1.22.0, a directory traversal issue in debian/guest-account.sh allows local attackers to own arbitrary directory path locations and escalate privileges to root when the guest user logs out. | 6.9 |
| 2017-03-28 | CVE-2017-6964 | Unchecked Return Value vulnerability in multiple products dmcrypt-get-device, as shipped in the eject package of Debian and Ubuntu, does not check the return value of the (1) setuid or (2) setgid function, which might cause dmcrypt-get-device to execute code, which was intended to run as an unprivileged user, as root. | 7.8 |
| 2017-03-27 | CVE-2016-9243 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products HKDF in cryptography before 1.5.2 returns an empty byte-string if used with a length less than algorithm.digest_size. | 7.5 |
