Kernel: SELinux: local denial-of-service

The securitycontexttosidcore function in security/selinux/ss/services.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service system crash by leveraging the CAPMACADMIN capability to set a zero-length security context...

kernel: crypto: info leaks in report API

The cryptoreportone function in crypto/cryptouser.c in the report API in the crypto user configuration API in the Linux kernel through 3.8.2 does not initialize certain structure members, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by leveraging the CAPNETADMI...

DEBIAN-CVE-2013-2548

The cryptoreportone function in crypto/cryptouser.c in the report API in the crypto user configuration API in the Linux kernel through 3.8.2 uses an incorrect length value during a copy operation, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging the...

DEBIAN-CVE-2012-6538

The copytouserauth function in net/xfrm/xfrmuser.c in the Linux kernel before 3.6 uses an incorrect C library function for copying a string, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by leveraging the CAPNETADMIN capability...

kernel: ipv4: netfilter: ip_tables: fix infoleak to userspace

net/ipv4/netfilter/iptables.c in the IPv4 implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not place the expected '\0' character at the end of string data in the values of certain structure members, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory by...

kernel: ipv6: netfilter: ip6_tables: fix infoleak to userspace

net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6tables.c in the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not place the expected '\0' character at the end of string data in the values of certain structure members, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory by...

kernel: netfilter: ebtables: enforce CAP_NET_ADMIN

net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c in the ebtables module in the netfilter framework in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33-rc4 does not require the CAPNETADMIN capability for setting or modifying rules, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and configure arbitrary network-traff...

security flaw

Race condition in the doaddcounters function in netfilter for Linux kernel 2.6.16 allows local users with CAPNETADMIN capabilities to read kernel memory by triggering the race condition in a way that produces a size value that is inconsistent with allocated memory, which leads to a buffer over-re...
