Vulnerabilities > Use of Uninitialized Resource
| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010-08-11 | CVE-2010-2556 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6/7/8 Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing an object that (1) was not properly initialized or (2) is deleted, leading to memory corruption, aka "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability." | 9.3 |
| 2009-10-22 | CVE-2009-3620 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products The ATI Rage 128 (aka r128) driver in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-git11 does not properly verify Concurrent Command Engine (CCE) state initialization, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified ioctl calls. | 7.8 |
| 2009-08-14 | CVE-2009-2692 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products The Linux kernel 2.6.0 through 2.6.30.4, and 2.4.4 through 2.4.37.4, does not initialize all function pointers for socket operations in proto_ops structures, which allows local users to trigger a NULL pointer dereference and gain privileges by using mmap to map page zero, placing arbitrary code on this page, and then invoking an unavailable operation, as demonstrated by the sendpage operation (sock_sendpage function) on a PF_PPPOX socket. | 7.8 |
| 2009-06-09 | CVE-2009-0949 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products The ippReadIO function in cups/ipp.c in cupsd in CUPS before 1.3.10 does not properly initialize memory for IPP request packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a scheduler request with two consecutive IPP_TAG_UNSUPPORTED tags. | 7.5 |
| 2008-10-15 | CVE-2008-3475 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01/6/7.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 does not properly handle errors related to using the componentFromPoint method on xml objects that have been (1) incorrectly initialized or (2) deleted, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML document, aka "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability." | 8.8 |
| 2008-09-27 | CVE-2008-4197 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in Opera Browser Opera before 9.52 on Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris, when processing custom shortcut and menu commands, can produce argument strings that contain uninitialized memory, which might allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or conduct other attacks via vectors related to activation of a shortcut. | 8.8 |
| 2008-08-14 | CVE-2008-3688 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in Havp Http Antivirus Proxy 0.88 sockethandler.cpp in HTTP Antivirus Proxy (HAVP) 0.88 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) by connecting to a non-responsive server, which triggers an infinite loop due to an uninitialized variable. | 7.5 |
| 2008-07-18 | CVE-2008-2934 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products Mozilla Firefox 3 before 3.0.1 on Mac OS X allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted GIF file that triggers a free of an uninitialized pointer. | 8.8 |
| 2008-03-19 | CVE-2008-0063 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products The Kerberos 4 support in KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5kdc) does not properly clear the unused portion of a buffer when generating an error message, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, aka "Uninitialized stack values." | 7.5 |
| 2008-01-16 | CVE-2008-0081 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in Microsoft Excel, Excel Viewer and Office Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Excel 2000 SP3 through 2003 SP2, Viewer 2003, and Office 2004 for Mac allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted macros, aka "Macro Validation Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-3490. | 9.8 |
