DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-08-06 CVE-2016-6187 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The apparmor_setprocattr function in security/apparmor/lsm.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.5 does not validate the buffer size, which allows local users to gain privileges by triggering an AppArmor setprocattr hook.
