| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2008-08-12 | CVE-2008-3275 | Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in multiple products The (1) real_lookup and (2) __lookup_hash functions in fs/namei.c in the vfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25.15 do not prevent creation of a child dentry for a deleted (aka S_DEAD) directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service ("overflow" of the UBIFS orphan area) via a series of attempted file creations within deleted directories. | 5.5 |
| 2008-08-08 | CVE-2008-3535 | Off-By-One Error vulnerability in Linux Kernel Off-by-one error in the iov_iter_advance function in mm/filemap.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.27-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a certain sequence of file I/O operations with readv and writev, as demonstrated by testcases/kernel/fs/ftest/ftest03 from the Linux Test Project. | 4.9 |
| 2008-08-06 | CVE-2008-3496 | Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Linux Kernel Buffer overflow in format descriptor parsing in the uvc_parse_format function in drivers/media/video/uvc/uvc_driver.c in uvcvideo in the video4linux (V4L) implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.26.1 has unknown impact and attack vectors. | 10.0 |
| 2008-07-09 | CVE-2008-2931 | Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in multiple products The do_change_type function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not verify that the caller has the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service by modifying the properties of a mountpoint. | 7.8 |
| 2008-07-09 | CVE-2008-2812 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) ppp_async.c, (5) ppp_synctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25_asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/. | 7.8 |
| 2008-02-08 | CVE-2008-0007 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel Linux kernel before 2.6.22.17, when using certain drivers that register a fault handler that does not perform range checks, allows local users to access kernel memory via an out-of-range offset. | 7.2 |
| 2008-01-29 | CVE-2007-6694 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The chrp_show_cpuinfo function (chrp/setup.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.21 through 2.6.18-53, when running on PowerPC, might allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown vectors that cause the of_get_property function to fail, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference. | 7.8 |
| 2007-09-14 | CVE-2007-3740 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The CIFS filesystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22, when Unix extension support is enabled, does not honor the umask of a process, which allows local users to gain privileges. | 4.4 |
| 2007-08-13 | CVE-2007-3851 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The drm/i915 component in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22.2, when used with i965G and later chipsets, allows local users with access to an X11 session and Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) to write to arbitrary memory locations and gain privileges via a crafted batchbuffer. | 6.0 |
| 2007-07-10 | CVE-2007-3107 | Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux PowerPC Kernel Restore_Sigcontext The signal handling in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22, including 2.6.2, when running on PowerPC systems using HTX, allows local users to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors involving floating point corruption and concurrency, related to clearing of MSR bits. | 2.1 |
