DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2008-09-04 CVE-2007-6716 fs/direct-io.c in the dio subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23 does not properly zero out the dio struct, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS), as demonstrated by a certain fio test.

2008-08-12 CVE-2008-3275 Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in multiple products
The (1) real_lookup and (2) __lookup_hash functions in fs/namei.c in the vfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25.15 do not prevent creation of a child dentry for a deleted (aka S_DEAD) directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service ("overflow" of the UBIFS orphan area) via a series of attempted file creations within deleted directories.

2005-11-27 CVE-2005-3847 Improper Locking vulnerability in multiple products
The handle_stop_signal function in signal.c in Linux kernel 2.6.11 up to other versions before 2.6.13 and 2.6.12.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) by sending a SIGKILL to a real-time threaded process while it is performing a core dump.

2005-10-21 CVE-2005-3274 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in ip_vs_conn_flush in Linux 2.6 before 2.6.13 and 2.4 before 2.4.32-pre2, when running on SMP systems, allows local users to cause a denial of service (null dereference) by causing a connection timer to expire while the connection table is being flushed before the appropriate lock is acquired.

2005-09-30 CVE-2005-3106 Improper Locking vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in Linux 2.6, when threads are sharing memory mapping via CLONE_VM (such as linuxthreads and vfork), might allow local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) by triggering a core dump while waiting for a thread that has just performed an exec.

2005-08-04 CVE-2005-2456 Improper Locking vulnerability in multiple products
Array index overflow in the xfrm_sk_policy_insert function in xfrm_user.c in Linux kernel 2.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (oops or deadlock) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a p->dir value that is larger than XFRM_POLICY_OUT, which is used as an index in the sock->sk_policy array.
