DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-4081 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
crypto/ghash-generic.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a failed or missing ghash_setkey function call, followed by a (1) ghash_update function call or (2) ghash_final function call, as demonstrated by a write operation on an AF_ALG socket.

5.5
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-3363 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The setup_cifs_sb function in fs/cifs/connect.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not properly handle DFS referrals, which allows remote CIFS servers to cause a denial of service (system crash) by placing a referral at the root of a share.

linux redhat CWE-20
6.5
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-3359 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The dma_rx function in drivers/net/wireless/b43/dma.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not properly allocate receive buffers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted frame.

2012-05-24 CVE-2011-3353 Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Buffer overflow in the fuse_notify_inval_entry function in fs/fuse/dev.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG_ON and system crash) by leveraging the ability to mount a FUSE filesystem.

5.5
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-3191 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Integer signedness error in the CIFSFindNext function in fs/cifs/cifssmb.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 allows remote CIFS servers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large length value in a response to a read request for a directory.
low complexity
linux redhat CWE-119
8.8
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-3188 The (1) IPv4 and (2) IPv6 implementations in the Linux kernel before 3.1 use a modified MD4 algorithm to generate sequence numbers and Fragment Identification values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disrupted networking) or hijack network sessions by predicting these values and sending crafted packets.

2012-05-24 CVE-2011-2918 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The Performance Events subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.1 does not properly handle event overflows associated with PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_CLOCK events, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted application.

linux CWE-400
5.5
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-2906 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Integer signedness error in the pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough function in drivers/scsi/pmcraid.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 might allow local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or memory corruption) via a negative size value in an ioctl call.

5.5
2012-05-24 CVE-2011-2898 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39.3 does not properly restrict user-space access to certain packet data structures associated with VLAN Tag Control Information, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information via a crafted application.

2012-05-24 CVE-2011-2707 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ptrace_setxregs function in arch/xtensa/kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 does not validate user-space pointers, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory locations via a crafted PTRACE_SETXTREGS request.
