CVE-2022-3996

If an X.509 certificate contains a malformed policy constraint and policy processing is enabled, then a write lock will be taken twice recursively. On some operating systems most widely: Windows this results in a denial of service when the affected process hangs. Policy processing being enabled o...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel affected versions not specified Description: The issue is related to the locking mechanism in the Linux kernel, specifically in the queued write lock slowpath function. A reader can acquire the lock without holding the wait lock,...

DEBIAN-CVE-2019-16137

An issue was discovered in the spin crate before 0.5.2 for Rust, when RwLock is used. Because memory ordering is mishandled, two writers can acquire the lock at the same time, violating mutual exclusion...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

kernel is vulnerable to denial of service DoS. The vulnerability exists in sound/core/control.c as it does not ensure possession of a read/write lock...

CVE-2014-9065

common/spinlock.c in Xen 4.4.x and earlier does not properly handle read and write locks, which allows local x86 guest users to cause a denial of service write denial or NMI watchdog timeout and host crash via a large number of read requests, a different vulnerability to CVE-2014-9066...

p2m lock starvation

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The current read/write lock implementation is read-biased, which allows a consistent stream of readers to starve writers indefinitely. There are certain rwlocks where guests are capable of applying arbitrary read pressure. IMPACT A malicious guest administrator can deny service ...
