DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2017-05-02 CVE-2015-9004 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19 mishandles counter grouping, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, related to the perf_pmu_register and perf_event_open functions.

7.8
2017-05-02 CVE-2014-9940 Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products
The regulator_ena_gpio_free function in drivers/regulator/core.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted application.

linux google CWE-416
7.0
2017-04-28 CVE-2017-7895 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel through 4.10.13 lack certain checks for the end of a buffer, which allows remote attackers to trigger pointer-arithmetic errors or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted requests, related to fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c.

2017-04-25 CVE-2017-7477 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Heap-based buffer overflow in drivers/net/macsec.c in the MACsec module in the Linux kernel through 4.10.12 allows attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the use of a MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1 size in conjunction with the NETIF_F_FRAGLIST feature, leading to an error in the skb_to_sgvec function.

2017-04-24 CVE-2017-8106 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The handle_invept function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel 3.12 through 3.15 allows privileged KVM guest OS users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and host OS crash) via a single-context INVEPT instruction with a NULL EPT pointer.

linux CWE-476
5.5
2017-04-24 CVE-2010-5329 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The video_usercopy function in drivers/media/video/v4l2-ioctl.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 relies on the count value of a v4l2_ext_controls data structure to determine a kmalloc size, which might allow local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large value.

linux CWE-399
5.5
2017-04-24 CVE-2010-5321 Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Memory leak in drivers/media/video/videobuf-core.c in the videobuf subsystem in the Linux kernel 2.6.x through 4.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging /dev/video access for a series of mmap calls that require new allocations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-6761.
low complexity
linux CWE-772
4.3
2017-04-24 CVE-2007-6761 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
drivers/media/video/videobuf-vmalloc.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.24 does not initialize videobuf_mapping data structures, which allows local users to trigger an incorrect count value and videobuf leak via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-5321.

2017-04-23 CVE-2017-8072 7PK - Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The cp2112_gpio_direction_input function in drivers/hid/hid-cp2112.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x before 4.9.9 does not have the expected EIO error status for a zero-length report, which allows local users to have an unspecified impact via unknown vectors.

2017-04-23 CVE-2017-8071 Improper Resource Shutdown or Release vulnerability in Linux Kernel
drivers/hid/hid-cp2112.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x before 4.9.9 uses a spinlock without considering that sleeping is possible in a USB HID request callback, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via unspecified vectors.
