correctly. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system,
leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4248)

handled correctly for active sockets. A local attacker could exploit
this to allocate all available kernel memory, leading to a denial of
service. (CVE-2010-4249)

Nelson Elhage discovered that the kernel did not correctly handle
process cleanup after triggering a recoverable kernel bug. If a local
attacker were able to trigger certain kinds of kernel bugs, they could
create a specially crafted process to gain root privileges.
(CVE-2010-4258)

Krishna Gudipati discovered that the bfa adapter driver did not
correctly initialize certain structures. A local attacker could read
files in /sys to crash the system, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2010-4343)

Tavis Ormandy discovered that the install_special_mapping function
could bypass the mmap_min_addr restriction. A local attacker could
exploit this to mmap 4096 bytes below the mmap_min_addr area, possibly
improving the chances of performing NULL pointer dereference attacks.
(CVE-2010-4346)

It was discovered that the ICMP stack did not correctly handle certain
unreachable messages. If a remote attacker were able to acquire a
socket lock, they could send specially crafted traffic that would
crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4526)

Dan Rosenberg discovered that the OSS subsystem did not handle name
termination correctly. A local attacker could exploit this crash the
system or gain root privileges. (CVE-2010-4527)

An error was reported in the kernel's ORiNOCO wireless driver's
handling of TKIP countermeasures. This reduces the amount of time an
attacker needs breach a wireless network using WPA+TKIP for security.
(CVE-2010-4648)

Dan Carpenter discovered that the Infiniband driver did not correctly
handle certain requests. A local user could exploit this to crash the
system or potentially gain root privileges. (CVE-2010-4649,
CVE-2011-1044)

An error was discovered in the kernel's handling of CUSE (Character
device in Userspace). A local attacker might exploit this flaw to
escalate privilege, if access to /dev/cuse has been modified to allow
non-root users. (CVE-2010-4650)

Kees Cook discovered that some ethtool functions did not correctly
clear heap memory. A local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges
could exploit this to read portions of kernel heap memory, leading to
a loss of privacy. (CVE-2010-4655)

Kees Cook discovered that the IOWarrior USB device driver did not
correctly check certain size fields. A local attacker with physical
access could plug in a specially crafted USB device to crash the
system or potentially gain root privileges. (CVE-2010-4656)

Joel Becker discovered that OCFS2 did not correctly validate on-disk
symlink structures. If an attacker were able to trick a user or
automated system into mounting a specially crafted filesystem, it
could crash the system or expose kernel memory, leading to a loss of
privacy. (CVE-2010-NNN2)

A flaw was found in the kernel's Integrity Measurement Architecture
(IMA). Changes made by an attacker might not be discovered by IMA, if
SELinux was disabled, and a new IMA rule was loaded. (CVE-2011-0006)

Dan Carpenter discovered that the TTPCI DVB driver did not check
certain values during an ioctl. If the dvb-ttpci module was loaded, a
local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a
denial of service, or possibly gain root privileges. (CVE-2011-0521)

Rafael Dominguez Vega discovered that the caiaq Native Instruments USB
driver did not correctly validate string lengths. A local attacker
with physical access could plug in a specially crafted USB device to
crash the system or potentially gain root privileges. (CVE-2011-0712)

correctly calculate block counts. A local attacker with physical
access could plug in a specially crafted block device to crash the
system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2011-1012)
