DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2011-08-04 CVE-2011-1412 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
sys/sys_unix.c in the ioQuake3 engine on Unix and Linux, as used in World of Padman 1.5.x before 1.5.1.1 and OpenArena 0.8.x-15 and 0.8.x-16, allows remote game servers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a long fs_game variable.

2011-07-18 CVE-2010-4656 Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in multiple products
The iowarrior_write function in drivers/usb/misc/iowarrior.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37 does not properly allocate memory, which might allow local users to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, and consequently cause a denial of service or gain privileges, via a long report.

7.8
2011-06-24 CVE-2011-1770 Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound) vulnerability in multiple products
Integer underflow in the dccp_parse_options function (net/dccp/options.c) in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33.14 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) packet with an invalid feature options length, which triggers a buffer over-read.

2011-06-22 CVE-2011-2534 Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Buffer overflow in the clusterip_proc_write function in net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_CLUSTERIP.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 might allow local users to cause a denial of service or have unspecified other impact via a crafted write operation, related to string data that lacks a terminating '\0' character.

7.8
2011-05-26 CVE-2010-4805 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
The socket implementation in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not properly manage a backlog of received packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a large amount of network traffic, related to the sk_add_backlog function and the sk_rmem_alloc socket field.

2011-05-26 CVE-2010-4251 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
The socket implementation in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34 does not properly manage a backlog of received packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by sending a large amount of network traffic, as demonstrated by netperf UDP tests.

2011-03-01 CVE-2011-1017 Out-Of-Bounds Write vulnerability in multiple products
Heap-based buffer overflow in the ldm_frag_add function in fs/partitions/ldm.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier might allow local users to gain privileges or obtain sensitive information via a crafted LDM partition table.

7.2
2011-02-18 CVE-2011-0709 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The br_mdb_ip_get function in net/bridge/br_multicast.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35-rc5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via an IGMP packet, related to lack of a multicast table.

2010-12-22 CVE-2010-4574 Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Google Chrome
The Pickle::Pickle function in base/pickle.cc in Google Chrome before 8.0.552.224 and Chrome OS before 8.0.552.343 on 64-bit Linux platforms does not properly perform pointer arithmetic, which allows remote attackers to bypass message deserialization validation, and cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact, via invalid pickle data.

2010-11-06 CVE-2010-4202 Integer Overflow OR Wraparound vulnerability in Google Chrome
Multiple integer overflows in Google Chrome before 7.0.517.44 on Linux allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted font.
