| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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. | 5.0 |
| 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. | 2.1 |
| 2016-06-27 | CVE-2016-4470 | The key_reject_and_link function in security/keys/key.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 does not ensure that a certain data structure is initialized, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via vectors involving a crafted keyctl request2 command. | 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 |
| 2016-06-27 | 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. | 5.6 |
| 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. | 7.8 |
| 2016-05-23 | CVE-2016-4951 | The tipc_nl_publ_dump function in net/tipc/socket.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not verify socket existence, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a dumpit operation. | 7.8 |
| 2016-05-23 | CVE-2016-4794 | Use-after-free vulnerability in mm/percpu.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted use of the mmap and bpf system calls. | 7.8 |
| 2016-05-23 | CVE-2016-4578 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize certain r1 data structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via crafted use of the ALSA timer interface, related to the (1) snd_timer_user_ccallback and (2) snd_timer_user_tinterrupt functions. | 2.1 |
