DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2017-03-07 CVE-2017-2636 Double Free vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in drivers/tty/n_hdlc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (double free) by setting the HDLC line discipline.

linux debian CWE-415
7.0
2017-03-07 CVE-2016-10200 Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in the L2TPv3 IP Encapsulation feature in the Linux kernel before 4.8.14 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by making multiple bind system calls without properly ascertaining whether a socket has the SOCK_ZAPPED status, related to net/l2tp/l2tp_ip.c and net/l2tp/l2tp_ip6.c.

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
2017-03-01 CVE-2017-6353 Double Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel
net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.1 does not properly restrict association peel-off operations during certain wait states, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid unlock and double free) via a multithreaded application.

linux CWE-415
4.9
2017-03-01 CVE-2017-6348 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The hashbin_delete function in net/irda/irqueue.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.13 improperly manages lock dropping, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via crafted operations on IrDA devices.

2017-03-01 CVE-2017-6347 Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ip_cmsg_recv_checksum function in net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c in the Linux kernel before 4.10.1 has incorrect expectations about skb data layout, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls, as demonstrated by use of the MSG_MORE flag in conjunction with loopback UDP transmission.

7.8
2017-03-01 CVE-2017-6346 Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.13 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a multithreaded application that makes PACKET_FANOUT setsockopt system calls.

high complexity
linux CWE-416
7.0
2017-03-01 CVE-2017-6345 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The LLC subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.9.13 does not ensure that a certain destructor exists in required circumstances, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG_ON) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls.

low complexity
linux CWE-20
4.6
2017-02-24 CVE-2017-5669 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The do_shmat function in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.12 does not restrict the address calculated by a certain rounding operation, which allows local users to map page zero, and consequently bypass a protection mechanism that exists for the mmap system call, by making crafted shmget and shmat system calls in a privileged context.

linux CWE-20
4.6
2017-02-23 CVE-2017-6214 Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The tcp_splice_read function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and soft lockup) via vectors involving a TCP packet with the URG flag.
