DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2012-05-17 CVE-2012-0038 Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Integer overflow in the xfs_acl_from_disk function in fs/xfs/xfs_acl.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a filesystem with a malformed ACL, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.

low complexity
linux CWE-190
5.5
2012-05-17 CVE-2011-4594 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The __sys_sendmsg function in net/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via crafted use of the sendmmsg system call, leading to an incorrect pointer dereference.

low complexity
linux CWE-476
5.5
2012-05-17 CVE-2011-4112 The net subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.1 does not properly restrict use of the IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to access /proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl, and then using the pktgen package in conjunction with a bridge device for a VLAN interface.

2012-05-17 CVE-2011-3637 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
The m_stop function in fs/proc/task_mmu.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via vectors that trigger an m_start error.

low complexity
linux redhat CWE-476
5.5
2011-09-06 CVE-2011-1776 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The is_gpt_valid function in fs/partitions/efi.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not check the size of an Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) GUID Partition Table (GPT) entry, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and OOPS) or obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by connecting a crafted GPT storage device, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1577.

linux redhat CWE-119
6.1
2011-09-06 CVE-2011-1771 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The cifs_close function in fs/cifs/file.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact by setting the O_DIRECT flag during an attempt to open a file on a CIFS filesystem.

linux CWE-476
7.8
2011-06-24 CVE-2011-2484 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The add_del_listener function in kernel/taskstats.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.39.1 and earlier does not prevent multiple registrations of exit handlers, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption), and bypass the OOM Killer, via a crafted application.

low complexity
linux CWE-399
4.9
2011-06-22 CVE-2011-2534 Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Buffer overflow in the clusterip_proc_write function in net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_CLUSTERIP.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 might allow local users to cause a denial of service or have unspecified other impact via a crafted write operation, related to string data that lacks a terminating '\0' character.

low complexity
linux CWE-120
7.8
2011-03-15 CVE-2011-0695 Race Condition vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in the cm_work_handler function in the InfiniBand driver (drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) by sending an InfiniBand request while other request handlers are still running, which triggers an invalid pointer dereference.
5.7
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.
