kernel: ipv6: fix use-after-free in ip6_finish_output2()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 networking stack. A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the ip6finishoutput2 function, where a cached pointer to the IPv6 destination address can become stale after memory reallocation. An attacker could potentially exploit this to leak sensitive...

kernel: ipv6: validate extension header length before copying to cmsg

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 networking stack. An unprivileged local user could exploit a vulnerability in how IPv6 extension header lengths are handled. By manipulating these headers using nftables, an attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds read, leading to information disclosure...

Ubuntu 14.10 : linux vulnerabilities (USN-2590-1)

Jan Beulich discovered the Xen virtual machine subsystem of the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to PCI command registers. A local guest user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service host crash. CVE-2015-2150 A stack overflow was discovered in the the microcode loader for...

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS : Linux kernel vulnerabilities (USN-2588-1)

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2588-1 advisory. A stack overflow was discovered in the the microcode loader for the intel x86 platform. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of...

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS : Linux kernel (Utopic HWE) vulnerabilities (USN-2589-1)

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2589-1 advisory. Jan Beulich discovered the Xen virtual machine subsystem of the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to PCI command registers. A local guest use...

USN-2587-1: Linux kernel (Trusty HWE) vulnerabilities

A stack overflow was discovered in the the microcode loader for the intel x86 platform. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service kernel crash or to potentially execute code with kernel privileges. CVE-2015-2666 It was discovered that the Linux kernel's IPv6 networking...

CVE-2009-3164

CVE-2009-3164 affects Sun Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris (SNV 01–82, 111–122) when using a Cassini GigaSwift Ethernet Adapter. It is a consequence of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-2136 in the IPv6/TCP-IP stack, enabling remote attackers to trigger a denial of service (kernel panic) via jumbo frames....
