DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-05-02 CVE-2015-8830 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel 4.0
Integer overflow in the aio_setup_single_vector function in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large AIO iovec.

2016-05-02 CVE-2015-8746 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c in the NFS client in the Linux kernel before 4.2.2 does not properly initialize memory for migration recovery operations, which allows remote NFS servers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) via crafted network traffic.

2016-05-02 CVE-2015-8324 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ext4 implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34 does not properly track the initialization of certain data structures, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) via a crafted USB device, related to the ext4_fill_super function.

2016-05-02 CVE-2015-8019 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel 3.14.54/3.18.22
The skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec function in net/core/datagram.c in the Linux kernel 3.14.54 and 3.18.22 does not accept a length argument, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a write system call followed by a recvmsg system call.

linux CWE-20
7.8
2016-05-02 CVE-2015-4178 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The fs_pin implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.0.5 does not ensure the internal consistency of a certain list data structure, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging user-namespace root access for an MNT_DETACH umount2 system call, related to fs/fs_pin.c and include/linux/fs_pin.h.

2016-05-02 CVE-2015-4177 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The collect_mounts function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0.5 does not properly consider that it may execute after a path has been unmounted, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging user-namespace root access for an MNT_DETACH umount2 system call.

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.

low complexity
linux CWE-200
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.

linux redhat CWE-362
4.7
2016-05-02 CVE-2015-2686 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel 3.19/3.19.1/3.19.2
net/socket.c in the Linux kernel 3.19 before 3.19.3 does not validate certain range data for (1) sendto and (2) recvfrom system calls, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging a subsystem that uses the copy_from_iter function in the iov_iter interface, as demonstrated by the Bluetooth subsystem.

linux CWE-264
7.8
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.
