DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
---|---|---|---|
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 |
2008-05-29 | CVE-2008-2137 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products The (1) sparc_mmap_check function in arch/sparc/kernel/sys_sparc.c and the (2) sparc64_mmap_check function in arch/sparc64/kernel/sys_sparc.c, in the Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.36.5 and 2.6 before 2.6.25.3, omit some virtual-address range (aka span) checks when the mmap MAP_FIXED bit is not set, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified mmap calls. | 4.4 |
2008-05-16 | CVE-2008-2136 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in multiple products Memory leak in the ipip6_rcv function in net/ipv6/sit.c in the Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.36.5 and 2.6 before 2.6.25.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via network traffic to a Simple Internet Transition (SIT) tunnel interface, related to the pskb_may_pull and kfree_skb functions, and management of an skb reference count. | 7.8 |
2008-05-08 | CVE-2008-1669 | Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel Linux kernel before 2.6.25.2 does not apply a certain protection mechanism for fcntl functionality, which allows local users to (1) execute code in parallel or (2) exploit a race condition to obtain "re-ordered access to the descriptor table." | 6.9 |
2008-05-02 | CVE-2008-1675 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The bdx_ioctl_priv function in the tehuti driver (tehuti.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.25.1 does not properly check certain information related to register size, which has unspecified impact and local attack vectors, probably related to reading or writing kernel memory. | 7.2 |
2008-05-02 | CVE-2008-1375 | Race Condition vulnerability in multiple products Race condition in the directory notification subsystem (dnotify) in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.24.6, and 2.6.25 before 2.6.25.1, allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) and possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors. | 6.9 |
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 |
