| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2016-9919 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel The icmp6_send function in net/ipv6/icmp.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.12 omits a certain check of the dst data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a fragmented IPv6 packet. | 7.5 |
| 2016-12-08 | CVE-2016-8655 | Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.12 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging the CAP_NET_RAW capability to change a socket version, related to the packet_set_ring and packet_setsockopt functions. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9644 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The __get_user_asm_ex macro in arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h in the Linux kernel 4.4.22 through 4.4.28 contains extended asm statements that are incompatible with the exception table, which allows local users to obtain root access on non-SMEP platforms via a crafted application. | 7.8 |
| 2016-11-28 | CVE-2016-9313 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel security/keys/big_key.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.7 mishandles unsuccessful crypto registration in conjunction with successful key-type registration, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that uses the big_key data type. | 7.8 |
