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-2004-1069 Race condition in SELinux 2.6.x through 2.6.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via SOCK_SEQPACKET unix domain sockets, which are not properly handled in the sock_dgram_sendmsg function.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1058 Race condition in Linux kernel 2.6 allows local users to read the environment variables of another process that is still spawning via /proc/.../cmdline.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1056 Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) driver in Linux kernel 2.6 does not properly check the DMA lock, which could allow remote attackers or local users to cause a denial of service (X Server crash) and possibly modify the video output.

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.
