| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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. | 5.9 |
| 2017-12-01 | CVE-2017-16611 | Link Following vulnerability in multiple products In libXfont before 1.5.4 and libXfont2 before 2.0.3, a local attacker can open (but not read) files on the system as root, triggering tape rewinds, watchdogs, or similar mechanisms that can be triggered by opening files. | 5.5 |
| 2017-12-01 | CVE-2017-17087 | Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere vulnerability in multiple products fileio.c in Vim prior to 8.0.1263 sets the group ownership of a .swp file to the editor's primary group (which may be different from the group ownership of the original file), which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by leveraging an applicable group membership, as demonstrated by /etc/shadow owned by root:shadow mode 0640, but /etc/.shadow.swp owned by root:users mode 0640, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-1000382. | 5.5 |
| 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. | 6.3 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16533 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in multiple products The usbhid_parse function in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. | 6.6 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16532 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The get_endpoints function in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. | 6.6 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16529 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in multiple products The snd_usb_create_streams function in sound/usb/card.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. | 6.6 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16528 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products sound/core/seq_device.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service (snd_rawmidi_dev_seq_free use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. | 6.6 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16527 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products sound/usb/mixer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (snd_usb_mixer_interrupt use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. | 6.6 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16525 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products The usb_serial_console_disconnect function in drivers/usb/serial/console.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device, related to disconnection and failed setup. | 6.6 |
