DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2009-11-05 CVE-2009-3875 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in SUN Jdk, JRE and SDK
The MessageDigest.isEqual function in Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in Sun Java SE in JDK and JRE 5.0 before Update 22, JDK and JRE 6 before Update 17, SDK and JRE 1.3.x before 1.3.1_27, and SDK and JRE 1.4.x before 1.4.2_24 allows remote attackers to spoof HMAC-based digital signatures, and possibly bypass authentication, via unspecified vectors related to "timing attack vulnerabilities," aka Bug Id 6863503.

5.0
2009-11-04 CVE-2009-3547 Operation on a Resource after Expiration or Release vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple race conditions in fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc6 allow local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or gain privileges by attempting to open an anonymous pipe via a /proc/*/fd/ pathname.
7.0
2009-10-22 CVE-2009-3621 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
net/unix/af_unix.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.31.4 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) by creating an abstract-namespace AF_UNIX listening socket, performing a shutdown operation on this socket, and then performing a series of connect operations to this socket.
5.5
2009-10-22 CVE-2009-3620 Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products
The ATI Rage 128 (aka r128) driver in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-git11 does not properly verify Concurrent Command Engine (CCE) state initialization, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified ioctl calls.
7.8
2009-09-22 CVE-2009-3288 Improper Restriction of Operations Within the Bounds of A Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The sg_build_indirect function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in Linux kernel 2.6.28-rc1 through 2.6.31-rc8 uses an incorrect variable when accessing an array, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel OOPS and NULL pointer dereference), as demonstrated by using xcdroast to duplicate a CD.

2009-09-18 CVE-2009-3238 Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) vulnerability in multiple products
The get_random_int function in drivers/char/random.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.30 produces insufficiently random numbers, which allows attackers to predict the return value, and possibly defeat protection mechanisms based on randomization, via vectors that leverage the function's tendency to "return the same value over and over again for long stretches of time."

5.5
2009-09-18 CVE-2009-1883 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.6.9
The z90crypt_unlocked_ioctl function in the z90crypt driver in the Linux kernel 2.6.9 does not perform a capability check for the Z90QUIESCE operation, which allows local users to leverage euid 0 privileges to force a driver outage.

4.4
2009-09-17 CVE-2009-3234 Buffer Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel 2.6.31
Buffer overflow in the perf_copy_attr function in kernel/perf_counter.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.31-rc1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a "big size data" to the perf_counter_open system call.

2009-09-08 CVE-2009-3088 Buffer Errors vulnerability in IBM Tivoli Directory Server 6.0
Heap-based buffer overflow in ibmdiradm in IBM Tivoli Directory Server (TDS) 6.0 on Linux allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via unknown vectors that trigger heap corruption, as demonstrated by a certain module in VulnDisco Pack Professional 8.11.
