DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2002-12-31 CVE-2002-1976 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
ifconfig, when used on the Linux kernel 2.2 and later, does not report when the network interface is in promiscuous mode if it was put in promiscuous mode using PACKET_MR_PROMISC, which could allow attackers to sniff the network without detection, as demonstrated using libpcap.

2002-12-31 CVE-2002-1963 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Linux kernel 2.4.1 through 2.4.19 sets root's NR_RESERVED_FILES limit to 10 files, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) by opening 10 setuid binaries.

2002-12-23 CVE-2002-1380 Local Denial of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.2 mmap()
Linux kernel 2.2.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by using the mmap() function with a PROT_READ parameter to access non-readable memory pages through the /proc/pid/mem interface.

2002-12-11 CVE-2002-1319 Denial Of Service vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.4 System Call TF Flag
The Linux kernel 2.4.20 and earlier, and 2.5.x, when running on x86 systems, allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via the emulation mode, which does not properly clear TF and NT EFLAGs.

2002-08-12 CVE-2002-0510 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The UDP implementation in Linux 2.4.x kernels keeps the IP Identification field at 0 for all non-fragmented packets, which could allow remote attackers to determine that a target system is running Linux.

2002-08-12 CVE-2002-0499 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The d_path function in Linux kernel 2.2.20 and earlier, and 2.4.18 and earlier, truncates long pathnames without generating an error, which could allow local users to force programs to perform inappropriate operations on the wrong directories.

2002-08-12 CVE-2002-0429 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.4.18
The iBCS routines in arch/i386/kernel/traps.c for Linux kernels 2.4.18 and earlier on x86 systems allow local users to kill arbitrary processes via a a binary compatibility interface (lcall).

2002-07-26 CVE-2002-0704 Improper Cross-boundary Removal of Sensitive Data vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The Network Address Translation (NAT) capability for Netfilter ("iptables") 1.2.6a and earlier leaks translated IP addresses in ICMP error messages.

2002-07-03 CVE-2002-0570 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The encrypted loop device in Linux kernel 2.4.10 and earlier does not authenticate the entity that is encrypting data, which allows local users to modify encrypted data without knowing the key.

2002-03-08 CVE-2002-0060 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.3.99/2.4.18
IRC connection tracking helper module in the netfilter subsystem for Linux 2.4.18-pre9 and earlier does not properly set the mask for conntrack expectations for incoming DCC connections, which could allow remote attackers to bypass intended firewall restrictions.
