DEBIAN-CVE-2010-4255

The fixuppagefault function in arch/x86/traps.c in Xen 4.0.1 and earlier on 64-bit platforms, when paravirtualization is enabled, does not verify that kernel mode is used to call the handlegdtldtmappingfault function, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service host OS BUGON via a...

Design/Logic Flaw

The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36 does not properly reload the FS and GS segment registers, which allows host OS users to cause a denial of service host OS crash via a KVMRUN ioctl call in conjunction with a modified Local Descriptor Table LDT...

openSUSE Security Update : kernel (kernel-111)

The openSUSE 11.0 kernel was updated to 2.6.25.11. It fixes following security problems: CVE-2008-2812: Various tty / serial devices did not check functionpointers for NULL before calling them, leading to potential crashes or code execution. The devices affected are usually only accessible by the...

Linux Kernel LDT Selector Local Privilege Escalation and Denial of Service Vulnerability

The Linux kernel is prone to a local vulnerability that may result in privilege escalation or a denial of service. This issue involves LDT Local Descriptor Table selectors in the VMI Virtual Machine Interface. Successfully exploiting this issue allows local attackers to trigger kernel crashes,...

Code injection

The LDT implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.25.x before 2.6.25.11 on x8664 platforms uses an incorrect size for ldtdesc, which allows local users to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors...

CVE-2008-3247: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer

The LDT implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.25.x before 2.6.25.11 on x8664 platforms uses an incorrect size for ldtdesc, which allows local users to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors...

CVE-2007-3731

The Linux kernel 2.6.20 and 2.6.21 does not properly handle an invalid LDT segment selector in %cs the xcs field during ptrace single-step operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service NULL dereference and OOPS via certain code that makes ptrace PTRACESETREGS and...

CVE-2003-0910

CVE-2003-0910 concerns a privilege-elevation flaw in the Local Descriptor Table (LDT) interface on Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000. An attacker must be locally logged on to exploit by creating a malicious LDT entry to gain access to protected memory; Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 are not aff...

CVE-2003-0910: Undefined Security Weakness

The NtSetLdtEntries function in the programming interface for the Local Descriptor Table LDT in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 allows local attackers to gain access to kernel memory and execute arbitrary code via an expand-down data segment descriptor descriptor that points to protected memory...
