| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-9576 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel The blk_rq_map_user_iov function in block/blk-map.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.14 does not properly restrict the type of iterator, which allows local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg device. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-6213 | Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9 does not restrict how many mounts may exist in a mount namespace, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and deadlock) via MS_BIND mount system calls, as demonstrated by a loop that triggers exponential growth in the number of mounts. | 4.7 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2016-9120 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the ion_ioctl function in drivers/staging/android/ion/ion.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by calling ION_IOC_FREE on two CPUs at the same time. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2015-8966 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel arch/arm/kernel/sys_oabi-compat.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted (1) F_OFD_GETLK, (2) F_OFD_SETLK, or (3) F_OFD_SETLKW command in an fcntl64 system call. | 7.2 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2016-8655 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.12 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging the CAP_NET_RAW capability to change a socket version, related to the packet_set_ring and packet_setsockopt functions. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9555 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel The sctp_sf_ootb function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.8 lacks chunk-length checking for the first chunk, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds slab access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted SCTP data. | 9.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9191 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel The cgroup offline implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 mishandles certain drain operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) by leveraging access to a container environment for executing a crafted application, as demonstrated by trinity. | 4.9 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9178 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The __get_user_asm_ex macro in arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h in the Linux kernel before 4.7.5 does not initialize a certain integer variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by triggering failure of a get_user_ex call. | 2.1 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9084 | Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in Linux Kernel drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_intrs.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 misuses the kzalloc function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow) or have unspecified other impact by leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file. | 4.6 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9083 | Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in Linux Kernel drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 allows local users to bypass integer overflow checks, and cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or have unspecified other impact, by leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file for a VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS ioctl call, aka a "state machine confusion bug." | 7.8 |
