Vulnerabilities > Improper Initialization
| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2011-07-18 | CVE-2010-4655 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in multiple products net/core/ethtool.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36 does not initialize certain data structures, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel heap memory by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for an ethtool ioctl call. | 5.5 |
| 2010-12-29 | CVE-2010-4343 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in multiple products drivers/scsi/bfa/bfa_core.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not initialize a certain port data structure, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via read operations on an fc_host statistics file. | 5.5 |
| 2008-09-26 | CVE-2008-3637 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in Apple mac OS X and mac OS X Server The Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) provider in Java on Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11, 10.5.4, and 10.5.5 uses an uninitialized variable, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted applet, related to an "error checking issue." | 8.8 |
| 2008-03-19 | CVE-2008-0062 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in multiple products KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5kdc) does not set a global variable for some krb4 message types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted messages that trigger a NULL pointer dereference or double-free. | 9.8 |
| 2007-11-15 | CVE-2007-3749 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in Apple mac OS X The kernel in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.10 does not reset the current Mach Thread Port or Thread Exception Port when executing a setuid program, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by creating the port before launching the setuid program, then writing to the address space of the setuid process. | 7.8 |
| 2001-07-31 | CVE-2001-1471 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in PHPbb 1.4.0 prefs.php in phpBB 1.4.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary PHP code via an invalid language value, which prevents the variables (1) $l_statsblock in prefs.php or (2) $l_privnotify in auth.php from being properly initialized, which can be modified by the user and later used in an eval statement. | 8.8 |
| 1999-12-13 | CVE-1999-0993 | Improper Initialization vulnerability in Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0/5.5 Modifications to ACLs (Access Control Lists) in Microsoft Exchange 5.5 do not take effect until the directory store cache is refreshed. | 7.5 |
