| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017-10-29 | CVE-2006-5331 | Data Processing Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel The altivec_unavailable_exception function in arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19 on 64-bit systems mishandles the case where CONFIG_ALTIVEC is defined and the CPU actually supports Altivec, but the Altivec support was not detected by the kernel, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by triggering execution of an Altivec instruction. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-17 | CVE-2017-15537 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The x86/fpu (Floating Point Unit) subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5, when a processor supports the xsave feature but not the xsaves feature, does not correctly handle attempts to set reserved bits in the xstate header via the ptrace() or rt_sigreturn() system call, allowing local users to read the FPU registers of other processes on the system, related to arch/x86/kernel/fpu/regset.c and arch/x86/kernel/fpu/signal.c. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-14 | CVE-2017-15299 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.13.7 mishandles use of add_key for a key that already exists but is uninstantiated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted system call. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-12 | CVE-2017-15274 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11.5 does not consider the case of a NULL payload in conjunction with a nonzero length value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted add_key or keyctl system call, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-12192. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-12 | CVE-2017-12192 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel The keyctl_read_key function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Key Management subcomponent in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5 does not properly consider that a key may be possessed but negatively instantiated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS and system crash) via a crafted KEYCTL_READ operation. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-04 | CVE-2017-14991 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The sg_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.4 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized kernel heap-memory locations via an SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE ioctl call for /dev/sg0. | 5.5 |
| 2017-10-02 | CVE-2017-14954 | Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel The waitid implementation in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.4 accesses rusage data structures in unintended cases, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information, and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism, via a crafted system call. | 5.5 |
| 2017-09-26 | CVE-2017-1000252 | Reachable Assertion vulnerability in Linux Kernel The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.13.3 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (assertion failure, and hypervisor hang or crash) via an out-of bounds guest_irq value, related to arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c and virt/kvm/eventfd.c. | 5.5 |
| 2017-09-25 | CVE-2015-5327 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel 4.3 Out-of-bounds memory read in the x509_decode_time function in x509_cert_parser.c in Linux kernels 4.3-rc1 and after. | 6.5 |
| 2017-09-21 | CVE-2017-12153 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products A security flaw was discovered in the nl80211_set_rekey_data() function in net/wireless/nl80211.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.3. | 4.4 |
