| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017-06-19 | CVE-2017-1000371 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel The offset2lib patch as used by the Linux Kernel contains a vulnerability, if RLIMIT_STACK is set to RLIM_INFINITY and 1 Gigabyte of memory is allocated (the maximum under the 1/4 restriction) then the stack will be grown down to 0x80000000, and as the PIE binary is mapped above 0x80000000 the minimum distance between the end of the PIE binary's read-write segment and the start of the stack becomes small enough that the stack guard page can be jumped over by an attacker. | 7.8 |
| 2017-06-19 | CVE-2017-1000370 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel The offset2lib patch as used in the Linux Kernel contains a vulnerability that allows a PIE binary to be execve()'ed with 1GB of arguments or environmental strings then the stack occupies the address 0x80000000 and the PIE binary is mapped above 0x40000000 nullifying the protection of the offset2lib patch. | 7.8 |
| 2017-06-19 | CVE-2017-1000365 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel The Linux Kernel imposes a size restriction on the arguments and environmental strings passed through RLIMIT_STACK/RLIM_INFINITY (1/4 of the size), but does not take the argument and environment pointers into account, which allows attackers to bypass this limitation. | 7.8 |
| 2017-06-19 | CVE-2017-1000364 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel An issue was discovered in the size of the stack guard page on Linux, specifically a 4k stack guard page is not sufficiently large and can be "jumped" over (the stack guard page is bypassed), this affects Linux Kernel versions 4.11.5 and earlier (the stackguard page was introduced in 2010). | 7.4 |
| 2017-06-17 | CVE-2017-1000380 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11.5 is vulnerable to a data race in the ALSA /dev/snd/timer driver resulting in local users being able to read information belonging to other users, i.e., uninitialized memory contents may be disclosed when a read and an ioctl happen at the same time. | 5.5 |
| 2017-06-13 | CVE-2017-9605 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The vmw_gb_surface_define_ioctl function (accessible via DRM_IOCTL_VMW_GB_SURFACE_CREATE) in drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.4 defines a backup_handle variable but does not give it an initial value. | 5.5 |
| 2017-05-08 | CVE-2017-8831 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in multiple products The saa7164_bus_get function in drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164-bus.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.5 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact by changing a certain sequence-number value, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability. | 6.4 |
| 2017-04-24 | CVE-2010-5321 | Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in Linux Kernel Memory leak in drivers/media/video/videobuf-core.c in the videobuf subsystem in the Linux kernel 2.6.x through 4.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging /dev/video access for a series of mmap calls that require new allocations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-6761. | 4.3 |
| 2017-03-03 | CVE-2015-2877 | Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products Kernel Samepage Merging (KSM) in the Linux kernel 2.6.32 through 4.x does not prevent use of a write-timing side channel, which allows guest OS users to defeat the ASLR protection mechanism on other guest OS instances via a Cross-VM ASL INtrospection (CAIN) attack. | 3.3 |
| 2016-10-10 | CVE-2015-8955 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products arch/arm64/kernel/perf_event.c in the Linux kernel before 4.1 on arm64 platforms allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) via vectors involving events that are mishandled during a span of multiple HW PMUs. | 7.3 |
