5.5
2018-04-11 CVE-2018-10021 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16 allows local users to cause a denial of service (ata qc leak) by triggering certain failure conditions.

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.

linux CWE-772
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.

linux redhat CWE-200
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
2016-05-09 CVE-2015-0571 Missing Authorization vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The WLAN (aka Wi-Fi) driver for the Linux kernel 3.x and 4.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, does not verify authorization for private SET IOCTL calls, which allows attackers to gain privileges via a crafted application, related to wlan_hdd_hostapd.c and wlan_hdd_wext.c.
