kernel: block: passing disk names as format strings

Format string vulnerability in the registerdisk function in block/genhd.c in the Linux kernel through 3.9.4 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging root access and writing format string specifiers to /sys/module/mdmod/parameters/newarray in order to create a crafted /dev/md device nam...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2012-55)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's XFS file system implementation handled links with overly long path names. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges by mounting a specially crafted disk. CVE-2011-4077 ,...

Scientific Linux Security Update : udev on SL5.x i386/x86_64

It was discovered that udev did not properly check the origin of Netlink messages. A local attacker could use this flaw to gain root privileges via a crafted Netlink message sent to udev, causing it to create a world-writable block device file for an existing system block device for example, the...
