DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
---|---|---|---|
2017-02-17 | CVE-2016-5417 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in GNU Glibc Memory leak in the __res_vinit function in the IPv6 name server management code in libresolv in GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.24 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging partial initialization of internal resolver data structures. | 7.5 |
2016-10-07 | CVE-2016-6323 | Improper Access Control vulnerability in multiple products The makecontext function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.25 creates execution contexts incompatible with the unwinder on ARM EABI (32-bit) platforms, which might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (hang), as demonstrated by applications compiled using gccgo, related to backtrace generation. | 7.5 |
2016-06-10 | CVE-2016-3706 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products Stack-based buffer overflow in the getaddrinfo function in sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors involving hostent conversion. | 7.5 |
2016-06-01 | CVE-2016-3075 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Stack-based buffer overflow in the nss_dns implementation of the getnetbyname function in GNU C Library (aka glibc) before 2.24 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and application crash) via a long name. | 7.5 |
2016-06-01 | CVE-2016-1234 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Stack-based buffer overflow in the glob implementation in GNU C Library (aka glibc) before 2.24, when GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC is used, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long name. | 7.5 |
2016-04-19 | CVE-2015-8779 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Stack-based buffer overflow in the catopen function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long catalog name. | 7.5 |
2016-04-19 | CVE-2015-8778 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Integer overflow in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via the size argument to the __hcreate_r function, which triggers out-of-bounds heap-memory access. | 7.5 |
2016-04-19 | CVE-2014-9761 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the (1) nan, (2) nanf, or (3) nanl function. | 7.5 |
2016-03-14 | CVE-2016-2856 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products pt_chown in the glibc package before 2.19-18+deb8u4 on Debian jessie; the elibc package before 2.15-0ubuntu10.14 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and before 2.19-0ubuntu6.8 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS; and the glibc package before 2.21-0ubuntu4.2 on Ubuntu 15.10 and before 2.23-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 16.10 lacks a namespace check associated with file-descriptor passing, which allows local users to capture keystrokes and spoof data, and possibly gain privileges, via pts read and write operations, related to debian/sysdeps/linux.mk. | 7.2 |
2016-02-18 | CVE-2015-7547 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the (1) send_dg and (2) send_vc functions in the libresolv library in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted DNS response that triggers a call to the getaddrinfo function with the AF_UNSPEC or AF_INET6 address family, related to performing "dual A/AAAA DNS queries" and the libnss_dns.so.2 NSS module. | 8.1 |
