CVE-2015-1339

Memory leak in the cusechannelrelease function in fs/fuse/cuse.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service memory consumption or possibly have unspecified other impact by opening /dev/cuse many times...

Fuse Write Privilege Vulnerability

Fuse is a set of Unix-like system mechanisms that allow unprivileged users to create filesystems without editing kernel code. Fuse uses insecure global writable permissions to create the '/dev/cuse' character device, allowing a local attacker to exploit the vulnerability to create arbitrary...

The vulnerability of the NX-OS network operating system allows a hacker to induce a maintenance failure.

The vulnerability of the NX-OS network operating system is related to resource management errors. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a malicious actor, who operates remotely and has completed the authentication process, to cause service failure by copying large files to the device’s file system...

kernel: integer overflow in fb_mmap

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Frame Buffer device implementation mapped kernel memory to user space via the mmap syscall. A local user able to access a frame buffer device file /dev/fb could possibly use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system...

kernel: block: floppy: privilege escalation via FDRAWCMD floppy ioctl command

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's floppy driver handled user space provided data in certain error code paths while processing FDRAWCMD IOCTL commands. A local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use this flaw to free using the kfree function arbitrary kernel memory. CVE-2014-173...

CVE-2014-3001

The device file system aka devfs in FreeBSD 10.0 before p2 does not load default rulesets when booting, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended restrictions by leveraging a jailed device node process...

Design/Logic Flaw

CVE-2014-3001

FreeBSD devfs: For FreeBSD 10.0 up to patch p2, default devfs rulesets are not loaded on boot, causing device nodes to be created in jails with normal default permissions. This enables jailed processes to access restricted host devices and could lead to information leakage or privilege escalation...

CVE-2013-1766

libvirt 1.0.2 and earlier sets the group owner to kvm for device files, which allows local users to write to these files via unspecified vectors...

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...

CVE-2009-0792

Multiple integer overflows in icc.c in the International Color Consortium ICC Format library aka icclib, as used in Ghostscript 8.64 and earlier and Argyll Color Management System CMS 1.0.3 and earlier, allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service heap-based buffer overflow and...

CVE-2007-5194

The Chroot server in rMake 1.0.11 creates a /dev/zero device file with read/write permissions for the rMake user and the same minor device number as /dev/port, which might allow local users to gain root privileges...

CVE-2007-5194

The CVE-2007-5194 entry concerns the Chroot server in rMake 1.0.11. A local-priority issue arises because it creates a /dev/zero device file with read/write permissions for the rMake user and shares the minor device number with /dev/port, enabling potential local privilege escalation to root. The...

CVE-2005-2218

The CVE describes a DevFS (FreeBSD 5.x) flaw where insufficient parameter checking for the node type during device creation allows a user inside a jail to expose hidden device nodes. This can let jailed processes access restricted host devices, potentially leading to information leakage and privi...
