Vulnerabilities > Linux > High
| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017-11-29 | CVE-2017-17053 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel The init_new_context function in arch/x86/include/asm/mmu_context.h in the Linux kernel before 4.12.10 does not correctly handle errors from LDT table allocation when forking a new process, allowing a local attacker to achieve a use-after-free or possibly have unspecified other impact by running a specially crafted program. | 7.0 |
| 2017-11-29 | CVE-2017-17052 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel The mm_init function in kernel/fork.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12.10 does not clear the ->exe_file member of a new process's mm_struct, allowing a local attacker to achieve a use-after-free or possibly have unspecified other impact by running a specially crafted program. | 7.8 |
| 2017-11-24 | CVE-2017-16939 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products The XFRM dump policy implementation in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted SO_RCVBUF setsockopt system call in conjunction with XFRM_MSG_GETPOLICY Netlink messages. | 7.8 |
| 2017-11-15 | CVE-2017-15115 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products The sctp_do_peeloff function in net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14 does not check whether the intended netns is used in a peel-off action, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls. | 7.8 |
| 2017-11-14 | CVE-2017-6264 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the NVIDIA GPU driver (gm20b_clk_throt_set_cdev_state), where an out of bound memory read is used as a function pointer could lead to code execution in the kernel.This issue is rated as high because it could allow a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process. | 7.8 |
| 2017-11-04 | CVE-2017-16526 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products drivers/uwb/uwbd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (general protection fault and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. | 7.8 |
| 2017-10-28 | CVE-2017-15951 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.10 does not correctly synchronize the actions of updating versus finding a key in the "negative" state to avoid a race condition, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls. | 7.8 |
| 2017-10-19 | CVE-2017-15649 | Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.6 allows local users to gain privileges via crafted system calls that trigger mishandling of packet_fanout data structures, because of a race condition (involving fanout_add and packet_do_bind) that leads to a use-after-free, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-6346. | 7.8 |
| 2017-10-16 | CVE-2017-15265 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel Race condition in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted /dev/snd/seq ioctl calls, related to sound/core/seq/seq_clientmgr.c and sound/core/seq/seq_ports.c. | 7.0 |
| 2017-10-11 | CVE-2017-12188 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.5, when nested virtualisation is used, does not properly traverse guest pagetable entries to resolve a guest virtual address, which allows L1 guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the host OS or cause a denial of service (incorrect index during page walking, and host OS crash), aka an "MMU potential stack buffer overrun." | 7.8 |
