DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-8660 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ovl_setattr function in fs/overlayfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 attempts to merge distinct setattr operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify the attributes of arbitrary overlay files via a crafted application.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-264
6.7
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-8374 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
fs/btrfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 mishandles compressed inline extents, which allows local users to obtain sensitive pre-truncation information from a file via a clone action.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-200
4.0
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-7990 Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Race condition in the rds_sendmsg function in net/rds/sendmsg.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not properly bound.
local
high complexity
linux CWE-362
5.8
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-7509 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
fs/ext4/namei.c in the Linux kernel before 3.7 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted no-journal filesystem, a related issue to CVE-2013-2015.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-20
4.4
2015-12-28 CVE-2013-7446 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Use-after-free vulnerability in net/unix/af_unix.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to bypass intended AF_UNIX socket permissions or cause a denial of service (panic) via crafted epoll_ctl calls.

5.3
2014-11-10 CVE-2014-8559 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
The d_walk function in fs/dcache.c in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 does not properly maintain the semantics of rename_lock, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock and system hang) via a crafted application.
5.5
2014-11-10 CVE-2014-3690 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.17.2 on Intel processors does not ensure that the value in the CR4 control register remains the same after a VM entry, which allows host OS users to kill arbitrary processes or cause a denial of service (system disruption) by leveraging /dev/kvm access, as demonstrated by PR_SET_TSC prctl calls within a modified copy of QEMU.
5.5
2014-11-10 CVE-2014-3647 arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 does not properly perform RIP changes, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) via a crafted application. 5.5
2014-11-10 CVE-2014-3646 arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 does not have an exit handler for the INVVPID instruction, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) via a crafted application.

2014-11-10 CVE-2014-3611 Race Condition vulnerability in multiple products
Race condition in the __kvm_migrate_pit_timer function in arch/x86/kvm/i8254.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) by leveraging incorrect PIT emulation.
