| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9313 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel security/keys/big_key.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.7 mishandles unsuccessful crypto registration in conjunction with successful key-type registration, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that uses the big_key data type. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9083 | Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in Linux Kernel drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 allows local users to bypass integer overflow checks, and cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or have unspecified other impact, by leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file for a VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS ioctl call, aka a "state machine confusion bug." | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-8632 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel The tipc_msg_build function in net/tipc/msg.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 does not validate the relationship between the minimum fragment length and the maximum packet size, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2015-1328 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products The overlayfs implementation in the linux (aka Linux kernel) package before 3.19.0-21.21 in Ubuntu through 15.04 does not properly check permissions for file creation in the upper filesystem directory, which allows local users to obtain root access by leveraging a configuration in which overlayfs is permitted in an arbitrary mount namespace. | 7.2 |
| 2016-11-16 | CVE-2016-7914 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.3 does not check whether a slot is a leaf, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and out-of-bounds read) via an application that uses associative-array data structures, as demonstrated by the keyutils test suite. | 7.1 |
| 2016-11-16 | CVE-2016-7913 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-16 | CVE-2016-7912 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Use-after-free vulnerability in the ffs_user_copy_worker function in drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.3 allows local users to gain privileges by accessing an I/O data structure after a certain callback call. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-16 | CVE-2016-7911 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the get_task_ioprio function in block/ioprio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted ioprio_get system call. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-16 | CVE-2016-7910 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Use-after-free vulnerability in the disk_seqf_stop function in block/genhd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.7.1 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging the execution of a certain stop operation even if the corresponding start operation had failed. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-16 | CVE-2015-8964 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The tty_set_termios_ldisc function in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by reading a tty data structure. | 7.1 |
