| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-9793 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.14 mishandles negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUFFORCE or (2) SO_RCVBUFFORCE option. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-9777 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel KVM in the Linux kernel before 4.8.12, when I/O APIC is enabled, does not properly restrict the VCPU index, which allows guest OS users to gain host OS privileges or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access and host OS crash) via a crafted interrupt request, related to arch/x86/kvm/ioapic.c and arch/x86/kvm/ioapic.h. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-9755 | Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in Linux Kernel The netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.9 mishandles IPv6 reassembly, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow, out-of-bounds write, and GPF) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that makes socket, connect, and writev system calls, related to net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_conntrack_reasm.c and net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_defrag_ipv6_hooks.c. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-9576 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel The blk_rq_map_user_iov function in block/blk-map.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.14 does not properly restrict the type of iterator, which allows local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg device. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-6787 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel kernel/events/core.c in the performance subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.0 mismanages locks during certain migrations, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka Android internal bug 31095224. | 7.0 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2016-6786 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel kernel/events/core.c in the performance subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.0 mismanages locks during certain migrations, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka Android internal bug 30955111. | 7.0 |
| 2016-12-28 | CVE-2012-6704 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.5 mishandles negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUF or (2) SO_RCVBUF option. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2016-9120 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the ion_ioctl function in drivers/staging/android/ion/ion.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by calling ION_IOC_FREE on two CPUs at the same time. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2015-8967 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products arch/arm64/kernel/sys.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0 allows local users to bypass the "strict page permissions" protection mechanism and modify the system-call table, and consequently gain privileges, by leveraging write access. | 7.8 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2015-8966 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel arch/arm/kernel/sys_oabi-compat.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted (1) F_OFD_GETLK, (2) F_OFD_SETLK, or (3) F_OFD_SETLKW command in an fcntl64 system call. | 7.8 |
