CVE-2007-4311

The xfersecondarypool function in drivers/char/random.c in the Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.35 performs reseed operations on only the first few bytes of a buffer, which might make it easier for attackers to predict the output of the random number generator, related to incorrect use of the sizeof...

CVE-2007-4311

The CVE-2007-4311 issue affects the Linux kernel random driver (drivers/char/random.c) where reseed operations reuse only the first bytes of a buffer due to incorrect use of sizeof, reducing entropy and potentially making RNG output more predictable. It is described for Linux 2.4.x builds prior t...

Stack overflow

Stack-based buffer overflow in the random number generator RNG implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 might allow local root users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges by setting the default wakeup threshold to a value greater than the output pool size, which triggers writing...

CVE-2007-2926

ISC BIND 9 through 9.5.0a5 uses a weak random number generator during generation of DNS query ids when answering resolver questions or sending NOTIFY messages to slave name servers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to guess the next query id and perform DNS cache poisoning...

CVE-2007-2926

CVE-2007-2926 affects ISC BIND 9.x up to 9.5.0a5, where the DNS query ID generator used during answering resolver questions or sending NOTIFY messages uses a weak RNG. This enables a remote attacker to more easily guess query IDs and poison caches. The issue is specific to outgoing queries from B...

USN-489-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

A flaw was discovered in dvb ULE decapsulation. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted message and cause a denial of service. CVE-2006-4623 The compatsysmount function allowed local users to cause a denial of service when mounting a smbfs filesystem in compatibility mode. CVE-2006-7203...

USN-486-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

The compatsysmount function allowed local users to cause a denial of service when mounting a smbfs filesystem in compatibility mode. CVE-2006-7203 The Omnikey CardMan 4040 driver cm4040cs did not limit the size of buffers passed to read and write. A local attacker could exploit this to execute...

/dev/random broken

The random number feature in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.20.13, and 2.6.21.x before 2.6.21.4, 1 does not properly seed pools when there is no entropy, or 2 uses an incorrect cast when extracting entropy, which might cause the random number generator to provide the same values after reboots on...
