| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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. | 7.8 |
| 2009-04-06 | CVE-2009-1243 | Improper Locking vulnerability in Linux Kernel net/ipv4/udp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.29.1 performs an unlocking step in certain incorrect circumstances, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by reading zero bytes from the /proc/net/udp file and unspecified other files, related to the "udp seq_file infrastructure." | 5.5 |
| 2009-03-23 | CVE-2009-1046 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The console selection feature in the Linux kernel 2.6.28 before 2.6.28.4, 2.6.25, and possibly earlier versions, when the UTF-8 console is used, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by selecting a small number of 3-byte UTF-8 characters, which triggers an "off-by-two memory error." NOTE: it is not clear whether this issue crosses privilege boundaries. | 4.7 |
| 2009-03-18 | CVE-2009-0935 | Improper Locking vulnerability in Linux Kernel The inotify_read function in the Linux kernel 2.6.27 to 2.6.27.13, 2.6.28 to 2.6.28.2, and 2.6.29-rc3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a read with an invalid address to an inotify instance, which causes the device's event list mutex to be unlocked twice and prevents proper synchronization of a data structure for the inotify instance. | 5.5 |
| 2009-03-12 | CVE-2009-0876 | Link Following vulnerability in SUN XVM Virtualbox Sun xVM VirtualBox 2.0.0, 2.0.2, 2.0.4, 2.0.6r39760, 2.1.0, 2.1.2, and 2.1.4r42893 on Linux allows local users to gain privileges via a hardlink attack, which preserves setuid/setgid bits on Linux, related to DT_RPATH:$ORIGIN. | 6.9 |
| 2009-03-06 | CVE-2009-0835 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The __secure_computing function in kernel/seccomp.c in the seccomp subsystem in the Linux kernel 2.6.28.7 and earlier on the x86_64 platform, when CONFIG_SECCOMP is enabled, does not properly handle (1) a 32-bit process making a 64-bit syscall or (2) a 64-bit process making a 32-bit syscall, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via crafted syscalls that are misinterpreted as (a) stat or (b) chmod, a related issue to CVE-2009-0342 and CVE-2009-0343. | 3.6 |
| 2009-02-27 | CVE-2009-0028 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The clone system call in the Linux kernel 2.6.28 and earlier allows local users to send arbitrary signals to a parent process from an unprivileged child process by launching an additional child process with the CLONE_PARENT flag, and then letting this new process exit. | 2.1 |
| 2009-02-10 | CVE-2008-6107 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The (1) sys32_mremap function in arch/sparc64/kernel/sys_sparc32.c, the (2) sparc_mmap_check function in arch/sparc/kernel/sys_sparc.c, and the (3) sparc64_mmap_check function in arch/sparc64/kernel/sys_sparc.c, in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25.4, omit some virtual-address range (aka span) checks when the mremap MREMAP_FIXED bit is not set, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified mremap calls, a related issue to CVE-2008-2137. | 4.9 |
| 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. | 7.2 |
| 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. | 7.2 |
