| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2015-4176 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0.2 does not properly support mount connectivity, which allows local users to read arbitrary files by leveraging user-namespace root access for deletion of a file or directory. | 5.5 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2015-4170 | Race Condition vulnerability in multiple products Race condition in the ldsem_cmpxchg function in drivers/tty/tty_ldsem.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13-rc4-next-20131218 allows local users to cause a denial of service (ldsem_down_read and ldsem_down_write deadlock) by establishing a new tty thread during shutdown of a previous tty thread. | 4.7 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2015-2672 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel The xsave/xrstor implementation in arch/x86/include/asm/xsave.h in the Linux kernel before 3.19.2 creates certain .altinstr_replacement pointers and consequently does not provide any protection against instruction faulting, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by triggering a fault, as demonstrated by an unaligned memory operand or a non-canonical address memory operand. | 5.5 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2015-1573 | Data Processing Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The nft_flush_table function in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18.5 mishandles the interaction between cross-chain jumps and ruleset flushes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability. | 5.5 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2015-1350 | Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties vulnerability in multiple products The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that underspecifies removing extended privilege attributes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (capability stripping) via a failed invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using chown to remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark dumpcap program. | 5.5 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2014-9717 | Improper Access Control vulnerability in Linux Kernel fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0.2 processes MNT_DETACH umount2 system calls without verifying that the MNT_LOCKED flag is unset, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and navigate to filesystem locations beneath a mount by calling umount2 within a user namespace. | 6.1 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2011-5321 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel The tty_open function in drivers/tty/tty_io.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1.1 mishandles a driver-lookup failure, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted access to a device file under the /dev/pts directory. | 5.5 |
| 2016-05-02 | CVE-2008-7316 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel mm/filemap.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25 allows local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a writev system call that triggers an iovec of zero length, followed by a page fault for an iovec of nonzero length. | 5.5 |
| 2016-04-27 | CVE-2016-3156 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in multiple products The IPv4 implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.5.2 mishandles destruction of device objects, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS networking outage) by arranging for a large number of IP addresses. | 5.5 |
| 2016-04-27 | CVE-2016-3139 | The wacom_probe function in drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor. | 4.6 |
