DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-05-02 CVE-2016-1575 Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in multiple products
The overlayfs implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly maintain POSIX ACL xattr data, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging a group-writable setgid directory.

2016-05-01 CVE-2015-8325 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
The do_setup_env function in session.c in sshd in OpenSSH through 7.2p2, when the UseLogin feature is enabled and PAM is configured to read .pam_environment files in user home directories, allows local users to gain privileges by triggering a crafted environment for the /bin/login program, as demonstrated by an LD_PRELOAD environment variable.

2016-04-27 CVE-2016-3672 7PK - Security Features vulnerability in multiple products
The arch_pick_mmap_layout function in arch/x86/mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly randomize the legacy base address, which makes it easier for local users to defeat the intended restrictions on the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE flag, and bypass the ASLR protection mechanism for a setuid or setgid program, by disabling stack-consumption resource limits.

2016-04-27 CVE-2016-3135 Integer overflow in the xt_alloc_table_info function in net/netfilter/x_tables.c in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 on 32-bit platforms allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via an IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE setsockopt call.

2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2069 Race Condition vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in arch/x86/mm/tlb.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1 allows local users to gain privileges by triggering access to a paging structure by a different CPU.

2016-04-25 CVE-2016-4054 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Buffer overflow in Squid 3.x before 3.5.17 and 4.x before 4.0.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Edge Side Includes (ESI) responses.

2016-04-25 CVE-2016-4051 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Buffer overflow in cachemgr.cgi in Squid 2.x, 3.x before 3.5.17, and 4.x before 4.0.9 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code by seeding manager reports with crafted data.

2016-04-25 CVE-2016-2113 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in multiple products
Samba 4.x before 4.2.11, 4.3.x before 4.3.8, and 4.4.x before 4.4.2 does not verify X.509 certificates from TLS servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof LDAPS and HTTPS servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.
