security flaw
Certain USB drivers in the Linux 2.4 kernel use the copytouser function on uninitialized structures, which could allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading memory that was not cleared from previous usage...
security flaw
The binfmtelf loader binfmtelf.c in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly handle a failed call to the mmap function, which causes an incorrect mapped image and may allow local users to execute arbitrary code...
CVE-2004-0883
Multiple vulnerabilities in the samba filesystem smbfs in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 allow remote samba servers to cause a denial of service crash or gain sensitive information from kernel memory via a samba server 1 returning more data than requested to the smbprocread function, 2 returning a data...
CVE-2004-0685
The CVE-2004-0685 issue affects Linux kernel 2.4 USB drivers that use copy_to_user on uninitialized structures, enabling local attackers to read memory not cleared from prior usage and potentially leak sensitive information. The description specifies local/partial impacts on confidentiality and i...
Debian DSA-514-1 : kernel-image-sparc-2.2 - failing function and TLB flush
Paul Starzetz and Wojciech Purczynski of isec.pl discovered a critical security vulnerability in the memory management code of Linux inside the mremap2 system call. Due to flushing the TLB Translation Lookaside Buffer, an address cache too early it is possible for an attacker to trigger a local...
