kernel: xen: local denial of service

The hypervisorcallback function in Xen, possibly before 3.4.0, as applied to the Linux kernel 2.6.30-rc4, 2.6.18, and probably other versions allows guest user applications to cause a denial of service kernel oops of the guest OS by triggering a segmentation fault in "certain address ranges."...

CVE-2009-0748

CVE-2009-0748 affects the Linux kernel: ext4_fill_super in fs/ext4/super.c fails to validate the superblock configuration, enabling a local attacker to trigger a NULL pointer dereference/OOPS when mounting a crafted ext4 filesystem. Impact is local denial of service. Affected ranges: Linux kernel...

CVE-2009-0746

The CVE-2009-0746 entry concerns the Linux kernel ext4 code: make_indexed_dir in fs/ext4/namei.c fails to validate a rec_len field, allowing a local attacker to trigger a denial of service (OOPS) by mounting a crafted ext4 filesystem. Affected is kernel 2.6.27 up to 2.6.27.19 and 2.6.28 up to 2.6...

CVE-2009-0745

CVE-2009-0745 concerns the Linux kernel ext4 resize path. The ext4_group_add function in fs/ext4/resize.c fails to properly initialize the group descriptor during a resize (resize2fs), which can allow a local attacker to trigger a denial of service (OOPS) by manipulating crafted values in memory....
