CVE-2012-6536

net/xfrm/xfrmuser.c in the Linux kernel before 3.6 does not verify that the actual Netlink message length is consistent with a certain header field, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by leveraging the CAPNETADMIN capability and providing a 1 new or 2...

UBUNTU-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...

UBUNTU-CVE-2013-2547

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...

CVE-2013-2546

CVE-2013-2546 concerns the Linux kernel 3.8.2 era: the crypto report API in the crypto user configuration API uses an incorrect string-copy function, enabling a local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN to leak information from kernel stack memory. The vulnerability is scoped to the report API in the ker...

UBUNTU-CVE-2013-1826

The xfrmstatenetlink function in net/xfrm/xfrmuser.c in the Linux kernel before 3.5.7 does not properly handle error conditions in dumponestate function calls, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference and system crash by leveraging the...

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...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel version 2.6.16 Description: A race condition exists in the do add counters function in netfilter for the Linux kernel, allowing local users with CAP NET ADMIN capabilities to read kernel memory. This is achieved by triggering the...

security flaw

Linux kernel 2.6.x does not properly restrict socket policy access to users with the CAPNETADMIN capability, which could allow local users to conduct unauthorized activities via 1 ipv4/ipsockglue.c and 2 ipv6/ipv6sockglue.c...
