DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-05-23 CVE-2016-4568 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-v4l2.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted number of planes in a VIDIOC_DQBUF ioctl call.

linux CWE-119
7.8
2016-05-23 CVE-2016-4565 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
The InfiniBand (aka IB) stack in the Linux kernel before 4.5.3 incorrectly relies on the write system call, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a uAPI interface.

7.8
2016-05-23 CVE-2016-4558 The BPF subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.5.5 mishandles reference counts, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application on (1) a system with more than 32 Gb of memory, related to the program reference count or (2) a 1 Tb system, related to the map reference count.

2016-05-23 CVE-2016-4557 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The replace_map_fd_with_map_ptr function in kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.5 does not properly maintain an fd data structure, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via crafted BPF instructions that reference an incorrect file descriptor.

6.2
2016-05-09 CVE-2015-0571 Missing Authorization vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The WLAN (aka Wi-Fi) driver for the Linux kernel 3.x and 4.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, does not verify authorization for private SET IOCTL calls, which allows attackers to gain privileges via a crafted application, related to wlan_hdd_hostapd.c and wlan_hdd_wext.c.
