DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2015-11-16 CVE-2015-8215 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
net/ipv6/addrconf.c in the IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel before 4.0 does not validate attempted changes to the MTU value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (packet loss) via a value that is (1) smaller than the minimum compliant value or (2) larger than the MTU of an interface, as demonstrated by a Router Advertisement (RA) message that is not validated by a daemon, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-0272.

2015-10-19 CVE-2015-7799 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Google Android 'PPP Character Device Driver'
The slhc_init function in drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.3 does not ensure that certain slot numbers are valid, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call.

2015-10-19 CVE-2015-6937 Null Pointer Deference Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The __rds_conn_create function in net/rds/connection.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not properly bound.

2015-10-19 CVE-2015-6252 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The vhost_dev_ioctl function in drivers/vhost/vhost.c in the Linux kernel before 4.1.5 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a VHOST_SET_LOG_FD ioctl call that triggers permanent file-descriptor allocation.

2.1
2015-10-19 CVE-2015-0275 Code vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ext4_zero_range function in fs/ext4/extents.c in the Linux kernel before 4.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG) via a crafted fallocate zero-range request.

2015-10-16 CVE-2013-7445 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.x mishandles requests for Graphics Execution Manager (GEM) objects, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via an application that processes graphics data, as demonstrated by JavaScript code that creates many CANVAS elements for rendering by Chrome or Firefox.

2015-08-31 CVE-2015-6526 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The perf_callchain_user_64 function in arch/powerpc/perf/callchain.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0.2 on ppc64 platforms allows local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a deep 64-bit userspace backtrace.

2015-08-31 CVE-2015-5697 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The get_bitmap_file function in drivers/md/md.c in the Linux kernel before 4.1.6 does not initialize a certain bitmap data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a GET_BITMAP_FILE ioctl call.

2.1
2015-08-31 CVE-2015-5366 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The (1) udp_recvmsg and (2) udpv6_recvmsg functions in the Linux kernel before 4.0.6 provide inappropriate -EAGAIN return values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (EPOLLET epoll application read outage) via an incorrect checksum in a UDP packet, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-5364.

5.0
2015-08-31 CVE-2015-4700 Code vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The bpf_int_jit_compile function in arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by creating a packet filter and then loading crafted BPF instructions that trigger late convergence by the JIT compiler.
