DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2004-03-03 CVE-2004-0077 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel do_mremap Function VMA Limit
The do_mremap function for the mremap system call in Linux 2.2 to 2.2.25, 2.4 to 2.4.24, and 2.6 to 2.6.2, does not properly check the return value from the do_munmap function when the maximum number of VMA descriptors is exceeded, which allows local users to gain root privileges, a different vulnerability than CAN-2003-0985.

2003-08-27 CVE-2003-0619 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Integer signedness error in the decode_fh function of nfs3xdr.c in Linux kernel before 2.4.21 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a negative size value within XDR data of an NFSv3 procedure call.

2003-03-31 CVE-2003-0127 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The kernel module loader in Linux kernel 2.2.x before 2.2.25, and 2.4.x before 2.4.21, allows local users to gain root privileges by using ptrace to attach to a child process that is spawned by the kernel.

2002-12-31 CVE-2002-1976 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
ifconfig, when used on the Linux kernel 2.2 and later, does not report when the network interface is in promiscuous mode if it was put in promiscuous mode using PACKET_MR_PROMISC, which could allow attackers to sniff the network without detection, as demonstrated using libpcap.

2002-12-23 CVE-2002-1380 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.2 mmap()
Linux kernel 2.2.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by using the mmap() function with a PROT_READ parameter to access non-readable memory pages through the /proc/pid/mem interface.

2002-08-12 CVE-2002-0499 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The d_path function in Linux kernel 2.2.20 and earlier, and 2.4.18 and earlier, truncates long pathnames without generating an error, which could allow local users to force programs to perform inappropriate operations on the wrong directories.

2002-07-03 CVE-2002-0570 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The encrypted loop device in Linux kernel 2.4.10 and earlier does not authenticate the entity that is encrypting data, which allows local users to modify encrypted data without knowing the key.

2001-10-18 CVE-2001-1384 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
ptrace in Linux 2.2.x through 2.2.19, and 2.4.x through 2.4.9, allows local users to gain root privileges by running ptrace on a setuid or setgid program that itself calls an unprivileged program, such as newgrp.
