DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
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.
