kernel: netfilter: nf_conntrack_dccp: incorrect skb_header_pointer API usages

net/netfilter/nfconntrackprotodccp.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 uses a DCCP header pointer incorrectly, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a DCCP packet that triggers a call to the 1 dccpnew, 2 dccppacket, or 3...

kernel: net: rds: dereference of a NULL device in rds_ib_laddr_check()

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the rdsibladdrcheck function in the Linux kernel's implementation of Reliable Datagram Sockets RDS. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system...

OpenSSL Heartbeat Extension Vulnerability in Multiple Cisco Products

Multiple Cisco products incorporate a version of the OpenSSL package affected by a vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to retrieve memory in chunks of 64 kilobytes from a connected client or server. The vulnerability is due to a missing bounds check in the handling ...

UBUNTU-CVE-2014-2678

The rdsiwladdrcheck function in net/rds/iw.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14 allows local users to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference and system crash or possibly have unspecified other impact via a bind system call for an RDS socket on a system that lacks RDS transports...
