4.7
2017-01-12 CVE-2016-6756 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel 3.10/3.18
An information disclosure vulnerability in Qualcomm components including the camera driver and video driver could enable a local malicious application to access data outside of its permission levels.

4.7
2016-12-28 CVE-2016-9756 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.12 does not properly initialize Code Segment (CS) in certain error cases, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-200
5.5
2016-12-28 CVE-2016-9685 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Multiple memory leaks in error paths in fs/xfs/xfs_attr_list.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allow local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted XFS filesystem operations.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-400
5.5
2016-12-28 CVE-2016-9588 7PK - Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9 mismanages the #BP and #OF exceptions, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) by declining to handle an exception thrown by an L2 guest.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-388
5.5
2016-12-28 CVE-2016-6213 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in Linux Kernel
fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9 does not restrict how many mounts may exist in a mount namespace, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and deadlock) via MS_BIND mount system calls, as demonstrated by a loop that triggers exponential growth in the number of mounts.
local
high complexity
linux CWE-400
4.7
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-9191 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The cgroup offline implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 mishandles certain drain operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) by leveraging access to a container environment for executing a crafted application, as demonstrated by trinity.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-399
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-9178 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The __get_user_asm_ex macro in arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h in the Linux kernel before 4.7.5 does not initialize a certain integer variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by triggering failure of a get_user_ex call.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-200
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8650 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The mpi_powm function in lib/mpi/mpi-pow.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 does not ensure that memory is allocated for limb data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) via an add_key system call for an RSA key with a zero exponent.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-399
5.5
2016-11-28 CVE-2016-8646 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The hash_accept function in crypto/algif_hash.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by attempting to trigger use of in-kernel hash algorithms for a socket that has received zero bytes of data.
