| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2016-6156 | Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the ec_device_ioctl_xcmd function in drivers/platform/chrome/cros_ec_dev.c in the Linux kernel before 4.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) by changing a certain size value, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability. | 5.1 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2016-6136 | Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the audit_log_single_execve_arg function in kernel/auditsc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.7 allows local users to bypass intended character-set restrictions or disrupt system-call auditing by changing a certain string, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability. | 4.7 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2016-5696 | Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products net/ipv4/tcp_input.c in the Linux kernel before 4.7 does not properly determine the rate of challenge ACK segments, which makes it easier for remote attackers to hijack TCP sessions via a blind in-window attack. | 4.8 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2016-5412 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S in the Linux kernel through 4.7 on PowerPC platforms, when CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV is enabled, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS infinite loop) by making a H_CEDE hypercall during the existence of a suspended transaction. | 6.5 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2016-5400 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel Memory leak in the airspy_probe function in drivers/media/usb/airspy/airspy.c in the airspy USB driver in the Linux kernel before 4.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted USB device that emulates many VFL_TYPE_SDR or VFL_TYPE_SUBDEV devices and performs many connect and disconnect operations. | 4.3 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2015-8944 | Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products The ioresources_init function in kernel/resource.c in the Linux kernel through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on Nexus 6 and 7 (2013) devices, uses weak permissions for /proc/iomem, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading this file, aka Android internal bug 28814213 and Qualcomm internal bug CR786116. | 5.5 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2014-9900 | Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products The ethtool_get_wol function in net/core/ethtool.c in the Linux kernel through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application, aka Android internal bug 28803952 and Qualcomm internal bug CR570754. | 5.5 |
| 2016-08-06 | CVE-2014-9892 | Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products The snd_compr_tstamp function in sound/core/compress_offload.c in the Linux kernel through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not properly initialize a timestamp data structure, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application, aka Android internal bug 28770164 and Qualcomm internal bug CR568717. | 5.5 |
| 2016-06-27 | CVE-2016-4440 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 mishandles the APICv on/off state, which allows guest OS users to obtain direct APIC MSR access on the host OS, and consequently cause a denial of service (host OS crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host OS, via x2APIC mode. | 7.8 |
| 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. | 7.8 |
