DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2004-07-07 CVE-2004-0424 Integer Overflow vulnerability in Linux Kernel Setsockopt MCAST_MSFILTER
Integer overflow in the ip_setsockopt function in Linux kernel 2.4.22 through 2.4.25 and 2.6.1 through 2.6.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via the MCAST_MSFILTER socket option.

2004-03-15 CVE-2004-0186 Local Privilege Elevation vulnerability in Linux Kernel Samba Share
smbmnt in Samba 2.x and 3.x on Linux 2.6, when installed setuid, allows local users to gain root privileges by mounting a Samba share that contains a setuid root program, whose setuid attributes are not cleared when the share is mounted.

2004-03-03 CVE-2004-0077 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel do_mremap Function VMA Limit
The do_mremap function for the mremap system call in Linux 2.2 to 2.2.25, 2.4 to 2.4.24, and 2.6 to 2.6.2, does not properly check the return value from the do_munmap function when the maximum number of VMA descriptors is exceeded, which allows local users to gain root privileges, a different vulnerability than CAN-2003-0985.

2004-01-20 CVE-2003-0985 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The mremap system call (do_mremap) in Linux kernel 2.4.x before 2.4.21, and possibly other versions before 2.4.24, does not properly perform bounds checks, which allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly gain privileges by causing a remapping of a virtual memory area (VMA) to create a zero length VMA, a different vulnerability than CAN-2004-0077.
