| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017-10-29 | CVE-2006-5331 | Data Processing Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The altivec_unavailable_exception function in arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19 on 64-bit systems mishandles the case where CONFIG_ALTIVEC is defined and the CPU actually supports Altivec, but the Altivec support was not detected by the kernel, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by triggering execution of an Altivec instruction. | 4.9 |
| 2017-10-19 | CVE-2017-15649 | Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.6 allows local users to gain privileges via crafted system calls that trigger mishandling of packet_fanout data structures, because of a race condition (involving fanout_add and packet_do_bind) that leads to a use-after-free, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-6346. | 4.6 |
| 2017-10-17 | CVE-2017-15537 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The x86/fpu (Floating Point Unit) subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5, when a processor supports the xsave feature but not the xsaves feature, does not correctly handle attempts to set reserved bits in the xstate header via the ptrace() or rt_sigreturn() system call, allowing local users to read the FPU registers of other processes on the system, related to arch/x86/kernel/fpu/regset.c and arch/x86/kernel/fpu/signal.c. | 2.1 |
| 2017-10-16 | CVE-2017-15265 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted /dev/snd/seq ioctl calls, related to sound/core/seq/seq_clientmgr.c and sound/core/seq/seq_ports.c. | 7.0 |
| 2017-10-14 | CVE-2017-15299 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.13.7 mishandles use of add_key for a key that already exists but is uninstantiated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted system call. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-12 | CVE-2017-15274 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11.5 does not consider the case of a NULL payload in conjunction with a nonzero length value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted add_key or keyctl system call, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-12192. | 4.9 |
| 2017-10-12 | CVE-2017-12192 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The keyctl_read_key function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Key Management subcomponent in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5 does not properly consider that a key may be possessed but negatively instantiated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS and system crash) via a crafted KEYCTL_READ operation. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-04 | CVE-2017-14991 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The sg_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.4 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized kernel heap-memory locations via an SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE ioctl call for /dev/sg0. | 2.1 |
| 2017-10-02 | CVE-2017-14954 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The waitid implementation in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.4 accesses rusage data structures in unintended cases, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information, and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism, via a crafted system call. | 2.1 |
| 2017-09-26 | CVE-2017-12154 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel The prepare_vmcs02 function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.3 does not ensure that the "CR8-load exiting" and "CR8-store exiting" L0 vmcs02 controls exist in cases where L1 omits the "use TPR shadow" vmcs12 control, which allows KVM L2 guest OS users to obtain read and write access to the hardware CR8 register. | 7.1 |
