DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2006-08-21 CVE-2006-4145 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The Universal Disk Format (UDF) filesystem driver in Linux kernel 2.6.17 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang and crash) via certain operations involving truncated files, as demonstrated via the dd command.

2006-07-21 CVE-2006-3468 Remote Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel NFS and EXT3 Combination
Linux kernel 2.6.x, when using both NFS and EXT3, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file system panic) via a crafted UDP packet with a V2 lookup procedure that specifies a bad file handle (inode number), which triggers an error and causes an exported directory to be remounted read-only.

2006-07-05 CVE-2006-2935 Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in multiple products
The dvd_read_bca function in the DVD handling code in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c in Linux kernel 2.2.16, and later versions, assigns the wrong value to a length variable, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a crafted USB Storage device that triggers a buffer overflow.

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.

2006-05-27 CVE-2006-2629 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel Proc dentry_unused Corruption
Race condition in Linux kernel 2.6.15 to 2.6.17, when running on SMP platforms, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by creating and exiting a large number of tasks, then accessing the /proc entry of a task that is exiting, which causes memory corruption that leads to a failure in the prune_dcache function or a BUG_ON error in include/linux/list.h.

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.

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.

9.0
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.
