DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2005-11-27 CVE-2005-3858 Remote Denial Of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel IP6_Input_Finish
Memory leak in the ip6_input_finish function in ip6_input.c in Linux kernel 2.6.12 and earlier might allow attackers to cause a denial of service via malformed IPv6 packets with unspecified parameter problems, which prevents the SKB from being freed.

2005-11-20 CVE-2005-2709 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The sysctl functionality (sysctl.c) in Linux kernel before 2.6.14.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel oops) and possibly execute code by opening an interface file in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/, waiting until the interface is unregistered, then obtaining and modifying function pointers in memory that was used for the ctl_table.

2005-10-21 CVE-2005-3274 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in ip_vs_conn_flush in Linux 2.6 before 2.6.13 and 2.4 before 2.4.32-pre2, when running on SMP systems, allows local users to cause a denial of service (null dereference) by causing a connection timer to expire while the connection table is being flushed before the appropriate lock is acquired.

2005-09-26 CVE-2005-3055 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
Linux kernel 2.6.8 to 2.6.14-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel OOPS) via a userspace process that issues a USB Request Block (URB) to a USB device and terminates before the URB is finished, which leads to a stale pointer reference.

2005-09-14 CVE-2005-2492 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
The raw_sendmsg function in the Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.13.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (change hardware state) or read from arbitrary memory via crafted input.

2005-09-14 CVE-2005-2490 Local Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Linux Kernel Sendmsg()
Stack-based buffer overflow in the sendmsg function call in the Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.13.1 allows local users to execute arbitrary code by calling sendmsg and modifying the message contents in another thread.

2005-09-14 CVE-2005-1913 Local Denial Of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel Subthread Exec
The Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a non group-leader thread executing a different program than was pending in itimer, which causes the signal to be delivered to the old group-leader task, which does not exist.

2005-09-09 CVE-2005-2873 Remote Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel Netfilter Ipt_recent
The ipt_recent kernel module (ipt_recent.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.12 and earlier does not properly perform certain time tests when the jiffies value is greater than LONG_MAX, which can cause ipt_recent netfilter rules to block too early, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2872.

2005-08-23 CVE-2005-2459 Null Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
The huft_build function in inflate.c in the zlib routines in the Linux kernel before 2.6.12.5 returns the wrong value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a certain compressed file that leads to a null pointer dereference, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2458.

2005-08-23 CVE-2005-2458 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel ZLib Invalid Memory Access
inflate.c in the zlib routines in the Linux kernel before 2.6.12.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a compressed file with "improper tables".
