DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1071 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel BINFMT_ELF Loader
The binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly handle a failed call to the mmap function, which causes an incorrect mapped image and may allow local users to execute arbitrary code.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1070 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel BINFMT_ELF Loader
The load_elf_binary function in the binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly check return values from calls to the kernel_read function, which may allow local users to modify sensitive memory in a setuid program and execute arbitrary code.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1068 A "missing serialization" error in the unix_dgram_recvmsg function in Linux 2.4.27 and earlier, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.9, allows local users to gain privileges via a race condition.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1016 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel SCM_SEND
The scm_send function in the scm layer for Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.28, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.9, allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via crafted auxiliary messages that are passed to the sendmsg function, which causes a deadlock condition.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-0949 Remote vulnerability in Linux Kernel SMBFS
The smb_recv_trans2 function call in the samba filesystem (smbfs) in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 does not properly handle the re-assembly of fragmented packets correctly, which could allow remote samba servers to (1) read arbitrary kernel information or (2) raise a counter value to an arbitrary number by sending the first part of the fragmented packet multiple times.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-0883 Remote vulnerability in Linux Kernel SMBFS
Multiple vulnerabilities in the samba filesystem (smbfs) in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 allow remote samba servers to cause a denial of service (crash) or gain sensitive information from kernel memory via a samba server (1) returning more data than requested to the smb_proc_read function, (2) returning a data offset from outside the samba packet to the smb_proc_readX function, (3) sending a certain TRANS2 fragmented packet to the smb_receive_trans2 function, (4) sending a samba packet with a certain header size to the smb_proc_readX_data function, or (5) sending a certain packet based offset for the data in a packet to the smb_receive_trans2 function.

2004-12-31 CVE-2004-2731 Numeric Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Multiple integer overflows in Sbus PROM driver (drivers/sbus/char/openprom.c) for the Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, 2.6.x up to 2.6.7, and possibly later versions, allow local users to execute arbitrary code by specifying (1) a small buffer size to the copyin_string function or (2) a negative buffer size to the copyin function.

2004-12-31 CVE-2004-2607 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
A numeric casting discrepancy in sdla_xfer in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.5 and 2.4 up to 2.4.29-rc1 allows local users to read portions of kernel memory via a large len argument, which is received as an int but cast to a short, which prevents a read loop from filling a buffer.

2004-12-23 CVE-2004-0814 Multiple race conditions in the terminal layer in Linux 2.4.x, and 2.6.x before 2.6.9, allow (1) local users to obtain portions of kernel data via a TIOCSETD ioctl call to a terminal interface that is being accessed by another thread, or (2) remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) by switching from console to PPP line discipline, then quickly sending data that is received during the switch.

2004-12-23 CVE-2004-0685 Information Disclosure vulnerability in Linux Kernel USB Driver Uninitialized Structure
Certain USB drivers in the Linux 2.4 kernel use the copy_to_user function on uninitialized structures, which could allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading memory that was not cleared from previous usage.
