USN-1204-1: Linux kernel (i.MX51) vulnerabilities

Dan Rosenberg discovered that the Linux kernel TIPC implementation contained multiple integer signedness errors. A local attacker could exploit this to gain root privileges. CVE-2010-3859 Dan Rosenberg discovered that multiple terminal ioctls did not correctly initialize structure memory. A local...

kernel: drivers/scsi/mpt2sas: prevent heap overflows

Integer overflow in the ctldomptcommand function in drivers/scsi/mpt2sas/mpt2sasctl.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.38 and earlier might allow local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service memory corruption via an ioctl call specifying a crafted value that triggers a heap-based buffer...

kernel: drivers/scsi/mpt2sas: prevent heap overflows

drivers/scsi/mpt2sas/mpt2sasctl.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.38 and earlier does not validate 1 length and 2 offset values before performing memory copy operations, which might allow local users to gain privileges, cause a denial of service memory corruption, or obtain sensitive information from...

CVE-2010-4655

CVE-2010-4655 affects the Linux kernel’s net/core/ethtool.c, where uninitialized data structures in ethtool ioctl handling could allow a local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN to leak information from kernel heap memory. The initial description specifies the vulnerability exists in kernel builds before 2....

kernel: agp: insufficient pg_start parameter checking in AGPIOC_BIND and AGPIOC_UNBIND ioctls

The agpgenericremovememory function in drivers/char/agp/generic.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.38.5 does not validate a certain start parameter, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service system crash via a crafted AGPIOCUNBIND agpioctl ioctl call, a different...

USN-1167-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Aristide Fattori and Roberto Paleari reported a flaw in the Linux kernel's handling of IPv4 icmp packets. A remote user could exploit this to cause a denial of service. CVE-2011-1927 Goldwyn Rodrigues discovered that the OCFS2 filesystem did not correctly clear memory when writing certain file...

USN-1160-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Dan Rosenberg discovered that IRDA did not correctly check the size of buffers. On non-x86 systems, a local attacker could exploit this to read kernel heap memory, leading to a loss of privacy. CVE-2010-4529 Dan Rosenburg discovered that the CAN subsystem leaked kernel addresses into the /proc...
