2009-04-09 CVE-2009-1250 Numeric Errors vulnerability in multiple products
The cache manager in the client in OpenAFS 1.0 through 1.4.8 and 1.5.0 through 1.5.58, and IBM AFS 3.6 before Patch 19, on Linux allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via an RX response with a large error-code value that is interpreted as a pointer and dereferenced, related to use of the ERR_PTR macro.

2009-01-29 CVE-2009-0343 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Niels Provos Systrace
Niels Provos Systrace 1.6f and earlier on the x86_64 Linux platform allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by making a 32-bit syscall with a syscall number that corresponds to a policy-compliant 64-bit syscall, related to race conditions that occur in monitoring 64-bit processes.

2009-01-29 CVE-2009-0342 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Provos Systrace
Niels Provos Systrace before 1.6f on the x86_64 Linux platform allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by making a 64-bit syscall with a syscall number that corresponds to a policy-compliant 32-bit syscall.

2008-10-15 CVE-2008-4576 Improper Authentication vulnerability in Linux Kernel
sctp in Linux kernel before 2.6.25.18 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via an INIT-ACK that states the peer does not support AUTH, which causes the sctp_process_init function to clean up active transports and triggers the OOPS when the T1-Init timer expires.

2008-08-10 CVE-2008-3579 Improper Authentication vulnerability in Calacode Atmail 5.41
Calacode @Mail 5.41 on Linux does not require administrative authentication for build-plesk-upgrade.php, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by creating and downloading a backup archive of the entire @Mail directory tree.

2008-08-05 CVE-2008-3357 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
Untrusted search path vulnerability in ingvalidpw in Ingres 2.6, Ingres 2006 release 1 (aka 9.0.4), and Ingres 2006 release 2 (aka 9.1.0) on Linux and HP-UX allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted shared library, related to a "pointer overwrite vulnerability." Fixes are available for the current release of Ingres 2006 release 2 (9.1.0), for Ingres 2006 release 1 (9.0.4), and for Ingres 2.6 versions on their respective platforms.

2008-07-09 CVE-2008-2931 Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in multiple products
The do_change_type function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not verify that the caller has the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service by modifying the properties of a mountpoint.

2008-07-09 CVE-2008-2812 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) ppp_async.c, (5) ppp_synctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25_asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/.

2008-06-10 CVE-2008-2358 Numeric Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Integer overflow in the dccp_feat_change function in net/dccp/feat.c in the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) subsystem in the Linux kernel 2.6.18, and 2.6.17 through 2.6.20, allows local users to gain privileges via an invalid feature length, which leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.
