| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2015-8709 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel through 4.4.1 mishandles uid and gid mappings, which allows local users to gain privileges by establishing a user namespace, waiting for a root process to enter that namespace with an unsafe uid or gid, and then using the ptrace system call. | 7.0 |
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2015-8575 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The sco_sock_bind function in net/bluetooth/sco.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.4 does not verify an address length, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism via a crafted application. | 4.0 |
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2015-8539 | Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in multiple products The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (BUG) via crafted keyctl commands that negatively instantiate a key, related to security/keys/encrypted-keys/encrypted.c, security/keys/trusted.c, and security/keys/user_defined.c. | 7.2 |
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2015-7566 | Local Denial of Service vulnerability in RETIRED: Linux Kernel The clie_5_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c in the Linux kernel through 4.4.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that lacks a bulk-out endpoint. | 4.9 |
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2015-7550 | Null Pointer Deference Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel The keyctl_read_key function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.4 does not properly use a semaphore, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that leverages a race condition between keyctl_revoke and keyctl_read calls. | 4.9 |
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2015-7513 | Divide By Zero vulnerability in multiple products arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4 does not reset the PIT counter values during state restoration, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and host OS crash) via a zero value, related to the kvm_vm_ioctl_set_pit and kvm_vm_ioctl_set_pit2 functions. | 4.9 |
| 2016-02-08 | CVE-2013-4312 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products The Linux kernel before 4.4.1 allows local users to bypass file-descriptor limits and cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by sending each descriptor over a UNIX socket before closing it, related to net/unix/af_unix.c and net/unix/garbage.c. | 6.2 |
| 2015-12-28 | CVE-2015-8660 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The ovl_setattr function in fs/overlayfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 attempts to merge distinct setattr operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify the attributes of arbitrary overlay files via a crafted application. | 6.7 |
| 2015-12-28 | CVE-2015-8569 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The (1) pptp_bind and (2) pptp_connect functions in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 do not verify an address length, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism via a crafted application. | 2.3 |
| 2015-12-28 | CVE-2015-8543 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel The networking implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3, as used in Android and other products, does not validate protocol identifiers for certain protocol families, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL function pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly gain privileges by leveraging CLONE_NEWUSER support to execute a crafted SOCK_RAW application. | 7.0 |
