DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2006-06-23 CVE-2006-3085 Remote Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel XT_SCTP-netfilter
xt_sctp in netfilter for Linux kernel before 2.6.17.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via an SCTP chunk with a 0 length.

7.8
2006-05-22 CVE-2006-1858 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
SCTP in Linux kernel before 2.6.16.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a chunk length that is inconsistent with the actual length of provided parameters.

linux CWE-20
7.8
2006-05-22 CVE-2006-1857 Improper Restriction of Operations Within the Bounds of A Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Buffer overflow in SCTP in Linux kernel before 2.6.16.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed HB-ACK chunk.

2006-05-19 CVE-2006-1856 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Certain modifications to the Linux kernel 2.6.16 and earlier do not add the appropriate Linux Security Modules (LSM) file_permission hooks to the (1) readv and (2) writev functions, which might allow attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.

2006-05-05 CVE-2006-1052 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel SELinux_PTrace
The selinux_ptrace logic in hooks.c in SELinux for Linux 2.6.6 allows local users with ptrace permissions to change the tracer SID to an SID of another process.

2006-04-20 CVE-2006-1056 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in multiple products
The Linux kernel before 2.6.16.9 and the FreeBSD kernel, when running on AMD64 and other 7th and 8th generation AuthenticAMD processors, only save/restore the FOP, FIP, and FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE/FXRSTOR when an exception is pending, which allows one process to determine portions of the state of floating point instructions of other processes, which can be leveraged to obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys.

2.1
2006-04-19 CVE-2006-1525 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
ip_route_input in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.16.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a request for a route for a multicast IP address, which triggers a null dereference.

linux CWE-399
4.9
2006-04-18 CVE-2006-0744 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Linux kernel before 2.6.16.5 does not properly handle uncanonical return addresses on Intel EM64T CPUs, which reports an exception in the SYSRET instead of the next instruction, which causes the kernel exception handler to run on the user stack with the wrong GS.

4.9
2006-03-27 CVE-2006-1066 Local Denial Of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel Get_Compat_Timespec and PTrace
Linux kernel 2.6.16-rc2 and earlier, when running on x86_64 systems with preemption enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (oops) via multiple ptrace tasks that perform single steps, which can cause corruption of the DEBUG_STACK stack during the do_debug function call.

1.2
2006-03-15 CVE-2006-1242 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ip_push_pending_frames function in Linux 2.4.x and 2.6.x before 2.6.16 increments the IP ID field when sending a RST after receiving unsolicited TCP SYN-ACK packets, which allows remote attackers to conduct an Idle Scan (nmap -sI) attack, which bypasses intended protections against such attacks.
