DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
---|---|---|---|
2012-05-24 | CVE-2011-2918 | Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel The Performance Events subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.1 does not properly handle event overflows associated with PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_CLOCK events, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted application. | 5.5 |
2012-05-24 | CVE-2011-2906 | Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel Integer signedness error in the pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough function in drivers/scsi/pmcraid.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 might allow local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or memory corruption) via a negative size value in an ioctl call. | 5.5 |
2012-05-24 | CVE-2011-2898 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39.3 does not properly restrict user-space access to certain packet data structures associated with VLAN Tag Control Information, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information via a crafted application. | 5.5 |
2012-05-24 | CVE-2011-2707 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The ptrace_setxregs function in arch/xtensa/kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 does not validate user-space pointers, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory locations via a crafted PTRACE_SETXTREGS request. | 6.0 |
2012-05-17 | CVE-2012-2121 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.3.4 does not properly manage the relationships between memory slots and the iommu, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (memory leak and host OS crash) by leveraging administrative access to the guest OS to conduct hotunplug and hotplug operations on devices. | 4.9 |
2012-05-17 | CVE-2012-1601 | Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.3.6 allows host OS users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and host OS crash) by making a KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP ioctl call after a virtual CPU already exists. | 4.9 |
2012-05-17 | CVE-2012-1179 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel The Linux kernel before 3.3.1, when KVM is used, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) by leveraging administrative access to the guest OS, related to the pmd_none_or_clear_bad function and page faults for huge pages. | 5.2 |
2012-05-17 | CVE-2012-1146 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event function in mm/memcontrol.c in the Linux kernel before 3.2.10 does not properly handle multiple events that are attached to the same eventfd, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by registering memory threshold events. | 5.5 |
2012-05-17 | CVE-2012-1090 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products The cifs_lookup function in fs/cifs/dir.c in the Linux kernel before 3.2.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via attempted access to a special file, as demonstrated by a FIFO. | 4.9 |
2012-05-17 | CVE-2012-0879 | Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products The I/O implementation for block devices in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33 does not properly handle the CLONE_IO feature, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (I/O instability) by starting multiple processes that share an I/O context. | 5.5 |
