DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
---|---|---|---|
2010-04-06 | CVE-2010-1083 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The processcompl_compat function in drivers/usb/core/devio.c in Linux kernel 2.6.x through 2.6.32, and possibly other versions, does not clear the transfer buffer before returning to userspace when a USB command fails, which might make it easier for physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information (kernel memory). | 4.7 |
2010-03-16 | CVE-2010-0727 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in multiple products The gfs2_lock function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34-rc1-next-20100312, and the gfs_lock function in the Linux kernel on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 and 6, does not properly remove POSIX locks on files that are setgid without group-execute permission, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and system crash) by locking a file on a (1) GFS or (2) GFS2 filesystem, and then changing this file's permissions. | 4.9 |
2010-01-12 | CVE-2009-4538 | Remote Security Bypass vulnerability in Linux Kernel drivers/net/e1000e/netdev.c in the e1000e driver in the Linux kernel 2.6.32.3 and earlier does not properly check the size of an Ethernet frame that exceeds the MTU, which allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via crafted packets, a related issue to CVE-2009-4537. | 10.0 |
2010-01-12 | CVE-2009-4537 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel drivers/net/r8169.c in the r8169 driver in the Linux kernel 2.6.32.3 and earlier does not properly check the size of an Ethernet frame that exceeds the MTU, which allows remote attackers to (1) cause a denial of service (temporary network outage) via a packet with a crafted size, in conjunction with certain packets containing A characters and certain packets containing E characters; or (2) cause a denial of service (system crash) via a packet with a crafted size, in conjunction with certain packets containing '\0' characters, related to the value of the status register and erroneous behavior associated with the RxMaxSize register. | 7.8 |
2010-01-12 | CVE-2009-4536 | Numeric Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel drivers/net/e1000/e1000_main.c in the e1000 driver in the Linux kernel 2.6.32.3 and earlier handles Ethernet frames that exceed the MTU by processing certain trailing payload data as if it were a complete frame, which allows remote attackers to bypass packet filters via a large packet with a crafted payload. | 7.8 |
2009-11-20 | CVE-2009-4004 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel Buffer overflow in the kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_setup_mce function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges via a KVM_X86_SETUP_MCE IOCTL request that specifies a large number of Machine Check Exception (MCE) banks. | 7.8 |
2009-11-16 | CVE-2009-3939 | Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in multiple products The poll_mode_io file for the megaraid_sas driver in the Linux kernel 2.6.31.6 and earlier has world-writable permissions, which allows local users to change the I/O mode of the driver by modifying this file. | 7.1 |
2009-11-06 | CVE-2009-3725 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The connector layer in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31.5 does not require the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for certain interaction with the (1) uvesafb, (2) pohmelfs, (3) dst, or (4) dm subsystem, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and gain privileges via calls to functions in these subsystems. | 7.2 |
2009-11-04 | CVE-2009-3547 | Operation on a Resource after Expiration or Release vulnerability in multiple products Multiple race conditions in fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc6 allow local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or gain privileges by attempting to open an anonymous pipe via a /proc/*/fd/ pathname. | 7.0 |
2009-10-22 | CVE-2009-3621 | Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products net/unix/af_unix.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.31.4 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) by creating an abstract-namespace AF_UNIX listening socket, performing a shutdown operation on this socket, and then performing a series of connect operations to this socket. | 5.5 |
