DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2017-02-06 CVE-2017-2583 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The load_segment_descriptor implementation in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.5 improperly emulates a "MOV SS, NULL selector" instruction, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or gain guest OS privileges via a crafted application.

2017-02-06 CVE-2016-10208 Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ext4_fill_super function in fs/ext4/super.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.8 does not properly validate meta block groups, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted ext4 image.

2017-02-06 CVE-2016-10154 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel 4.9
The smbhash function in fs/cifs/smbencrypt.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x before 4.9.1 interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of more than one virtual page for a scatterlist.

2017-02-06 CVE-2016-10153 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The crypto scatterlist API in the Linux kernel 4.9.x before 4.9.6 interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging reliance on earlier net/ceph/crypto.c code.

2017-02-06 CVE-2016-10150 Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Use-after-free vulnerability in the kvm_ioctl_create_device function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.13 allows host OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via crafted ioctl calls on the /dev/kvm device.

2017-02-06 CVE-2010-5328 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
include/linux/init_task.h in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not prevent signals with a process group ID of zero from reaching the swapper process, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging access to this process group.

5.5
2017-01-18 CVE-2016-10147 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
crypto/mcryptd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.15 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) by using an AF_ALG socket with an incompatible algorithm, as demonstrated by mcryptd(md5).

5.5
2017-01-15 CVE-2017-2584 Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel
arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.3 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted application that leverages instruction emulation for fxrstor, fxsave, sgdt, and sidt.
