DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2847 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in multiple products
fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 does not limit the amount of unread data in pipes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by creating many pipes with non-default sizes.
local
low complexity
linux novell CWE-399
6.2
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2782 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in endpoint.
low complexity
linux suse CWE-476
4.6
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2550 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The Linux kernel before 4.5 allows local users to bypass file-descriptor limits and cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging incorrect tracking of descriptor ownership and sending each descriptor over a UNIX socket before closing it.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-399
5.5
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2384 Double free vulnerability in the snd_usbmidi_create function in sound/usb/midi.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving an invalid USB descriptor.
low complexity
linux novell
4.6
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2383 The adjust_branches function in kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 does not consider the delta in the backward-jump case, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by creating a packet filter and then loading crafted BPF instructions.

low complexity
linux canonical opensuse
5.5
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2184 The create_fixed_stream_quirk function in sound/usb/quirks.c in the snd-usb-audio driver in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference or double free, and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.
low complexity
linux canonical novell
4.6
2016-04-27 CVE-2016-2085 Data Processing Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The evm_verify_hmac function in security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 does not properly copy data, which makes it easier for local users to forge MAC values via a timing side-channel attack.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-19
5.5
2014-06-07 CVE-2014-3153 The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.

low complexity
linux redhat suse opensuse canonical oracle
7.8
2013-11-20 CVE-2013-6282 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The (1) get_user and (2) put_user API functions in the Linux kernel before 3.5.5 on the v6k and v7 ARM platforms do not validate certain addresses, which allows attackers to read or modify the contents of arbitrary kernel memory locations via a crafted application, as exploited in the wild against Android devices in October and November 2013.
