DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-06-27 CVE-2016-5828 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The start_thread function in arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 on powerpc platforms mishandles transactional state, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid process state or TM Bad Thing exception, and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by starting and suspending a transaction before an exec system call.

7.8
2016-06-27 CVE-2016-5728 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in the vop_ioctl function in drivers/misc/mic/vop/vop_vringh.c in the MIC VOP driver in the Linux kernel before 4.6.1 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) by changing a certain header, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability.
5.4
2016-06-27 CVE-2016-5244 Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products
The rds_inc_info_copy function in net/rds/recv.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading an RDS message.

2016-06-27 CVE-2016-5243 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The tipc_nl_compat_link_dump function in net/tipc/netlink_compat.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 does not properly copy a certain string, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading a Netlink message.

2016-06-27 CVE-2016-3713 Improper Access Control vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The msr_mtrr_valid function in arch/x86/kvm/mtrr.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.1 supports MSR 0x2f8, which allows guest OS users to read or write to the kvm_arch_vcpu data structure, and consequently obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (system crash), via a crafted ioctl call.

2016-06-27 CVE-2016-1583 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The ecryptfs_privileged_open function in fs/ecryptfs/kthread.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.3 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (stack memory consumption) via vectors involving crafted mmap calls for /proc pathnames, leading to recursive pagefault handling.
