Vulnerabilities > NULL Pointer Dereference
| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2012-02-02 | CVE-2011-2525 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The qdisc_notify function in net/sched/sch_api.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not prevent tc_fill_qdisc function calls referencing builtin (aka CQ_F_BUILTIN) Qdisc structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted call. | 7.8 |
| 2011-09-06 | CVE-2011-1771 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The cifs_close function in fs/cifs/file.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact by setting the O_DIRECT flag during an attempt to open a file on a CIFS filesystem. | 7.8 |
| 2011-07-17 | CVE-2011-2691 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The png_err function in pngerror.c in libpng 1.0.x before 1.0.55, 1.2.x before 1.2.45, 1.4.x before 1.4.8, and 1.5.x before 1.5.4 makes a function call using a NULL pointer argument instead of an empty-string argument, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PNG image. | 6.5 |
| 2011-02-18 | CVE-2011-0709 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The br_mdb_ip_get function in net/bridge/br_multicast.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35-rc5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via an IGMP packet, related to lack of a multicast table. | 7.5 |
| 2010-09-30 | CVE-2010-3079 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products kernel/trace/ftrace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35.5, when debugfs is enabled, does not properly handle interaction between mutex possession and llseek operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and outage of all function tracing files) via an lseek call on a file descriptor associated with the set_ftrace_filter file. | 5.5 |
| 2010-09-08 | CVE-2010-2960 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The keyctl_session_to_parent function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.35.4 and earlier expects that a certain parent session keyring exists, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT argument to the keyctl function. | 7.8 |
| 2010-09-08 | CVE-2010-2798 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The gfs2_dirent_find_space function in fs/gfs2/dir.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 uses an incorrect size value in calculations associated with sentinel directory entries, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) and possibly have unspecified other impact by renaming a file in a GFS2 filesystem, related to the gfs2_rename function in fs/gfs2/ops_inode.c. | 7.8 |
| 2010-09-08 | CVE-2009-4895 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products Race condition in the tty_fasync function in drivers/char/tty_io.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors, related to the put_tty_queue and __f_setown functions. | 4.7 |
| 2009-08-27 | CVE-2009-2698 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The udp_sendmsg function in the UDP implementation in (1) net/ipv4/udp.c and (2) net/ipv6/udp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via vectors involving the MSG_MORE flag and a UDP socket. | 7.8 |
| 2009-08-14 | CVE-2009-2768 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The load_flat_shared_library function in fs/binfmt_flat.c in the flat subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-rc6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by executing a shared flat binary, which triggers an access of an "uninitialized cred pointer." | 7.8 |
