UBUNTU-CVE-2023-0461

There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel which can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. To reach the vulnerability kernel configuration flag CONFIGTLS or CONFIGXFRMESPINTCP has to be configured, but the operation does not require any privilege. There is a...

SUSE CVE-2006-3085

xtsctp in netfilter for Linux kernel before 2.6.17.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service infinite loop via an SCTP chunk with a 0 length...

SUSE CVE-2006-5173

Linux kernel does not properly save or restore EFLAGS during a context switch, or reset the flags when creating new threads, which allows local users to cause a denial of service process crash, as demonstrated using a process that sets the Alignment Check flag EFLAGS 0x40000, which triggers a...

SUSE CVE-2007-5500

The waittaskstopped function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23.8 checks a TASKTRACED bit instead of an exitstate value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service machine crash via unspecified vectors. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information...

SUSE CVE-2010-1086

The ULE decapsulation functionality in drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvbnet.c in dvb-core in Linux kernel 2.6.33 and earlier allows attackers to cause a denial of service infinite loop via a crafted MPEG2-TS frame, related to an invalid Payload Pointer ULE...

SUSE CVE-2010-2226

The xfsswapext function in fs/xfs/xfsdfrag.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not properly check the file descriptors passed to the SWAPEXT ioctl, which allows local users to leverage write access and obtain read access by swapping one file into another file...

SUSE CVE-2013-1928

The dovideosetspupalette function in fs/compatioctl.c in the Linux kernel before 3.6.5 on unspecified architectures lacks a certain error check, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted VIDEOSETSPUPALETTE ioctl call on a /dev/dvb device...

SUSE CVE-2015-5283

The sctpinit function in net/sctp/protocol.c in the Linux kernel before 4.2.3 has an incorrect sequence of protocol-initialization steps, which allows local users to cause a denial of service panic or memory corruption by creating SCTP sockets before all of the steps have finished...

SUSE CVE-2016-2546

sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1 uses an incorrect type of mutex, which allows local users to cause a denial of service race condition, use-after-free, and system crash via a crafted ioctl call...

SUSE CVE-2016-9777

KVM in the Linux kernel before 4.8.12, when I/O APIC is enabled, does not properly restrict the VCPU index, which allows guest OS users to gain host OS privileges or cause a denial of service out-of-bounds array access and host OS crash via a crafted interrupt request, related to...

SUSE CVE-2018-1095

The ext4xattrcheckentries function in fs/ext4/xattr.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 does not properly validate xattr sizes, which causes misinterpretation of a size as an error code, and consequently allows attackers to cause a denial of service getacl NULL pointer dereference and system...

SUSE CVE-2018-14633

A security flaw was found in the chapservercomputemd5 function in the ISCSI target code in the Linux kernel in a way an authentication request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a stack buffer overflow and smash up to 17 bytes of the stack. The atta...

SUSE CVE-2018-18710

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.19. An information leak in cdromioctlselectdisc in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940 and...

SUSE CVE-2020-10767

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel before 5.8-rc1 in the implementation of the Enhanced IBPB Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier. The IBPB mitigation will be disabled when STIBP is not available or when the Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation IBRS is available. This flaw allows a loc...

SUSE CVE-2020-26139

An issue was discovered in the kernel in NetBSD 7.1. An Access Point AP forwards EAPOL frames to other clients even though the sender has not yet successfully authenticated to the AP. This might be abused in projected Wi-Fi networks to launch denial-of-service attacks against connected clients an...

SUSE CVE-2021-38203

btrfs in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of service deadlock via processes that trigger allocation of new system chunks during times when there is a shortage of free space in the system spaceinfo...

SUSE CVE-2022-1199

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. This flaw allows an attacker to crash the Linux kernel by simulating amateur radio from the user space, resulting in a null-ptr-deref vulnerability and a use-after-free vulnerability...

SUSE CVE-2022-2938

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of Pressure Stall Information. While the feature is disabled by default, it could allow an attacker to crash the system or have other memory-corruption side effects...

SUSE CVE-2022-47941

An issue was discovered in ksmbd in the Linux kernel 5.15 through 5.19 before 5.19.2. fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c omits a kfree call in certain smb2handlenegotiate error conditions, aka a memory leak...
