USN-3160-1 linux vulnerabilities

CAI Qian discovered that shared bind mounts in a mount namespace exponentially added entries without restriction to the Linux kernel's mount table. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service system crash. CVE-2016-6213 It was discovered that a race condition existed in the procf...

UBUNTU-CVE-2016-7915

The hidinputfield function in drivers/hid/hid-core.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service out-of-bounds read by connecting a device, as demonstrated by a Logitech DJ receiver...

DEBIAN-CVE-2013-7267

The atalkrecvmsg function in net/appletalk/ddp.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value without ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a 1 recvfrom, 2 recvmmsg, or 3...

kernel: drivers/sound/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c: reading uninitialized stack memory

The sndhdsphwdepioctl function in sound/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc6 does not initialize a certain structure, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via an SNDRVHDSPIOCTLGETCONFIGINFO ioctl call...

security flaw

Raw character devices raw.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.x call the wrong function before passing an ioctl to the block device, which crosses security boundaries by making kernel address space accessible from user space, a similar vulnerability to CVE-2005-1589...

CVE-2004-0415

Linux kernel does not properly convert 64-bit file offset pointers to 32 bits, which allows local users to access portions of kernel memory...

CVE-2004-0535

The e1000 driver for Linux kernel 2.4.26 and earlier does not properly initialize memory before using it, which allows local users to read portions of kernel memory. NOTE: this issue was originally incorrectly reported as a "buffer overflow" by some sources...
