DEBIAN-CVE-2018-1118
Linux kernel vhost since version 4.8 does not properly initialize memory in messages passed between virtual guests and the host operating system in the vhost/vhost.c:vhostnewmsg function. This can allow local privileged users to read some kernel memory contents when reading from the /dev/vhost-ne...
kernel: mm/pagewalk.c: walk_hugetlb_range function mishandles holes in hugetlb ranges causing information leak
The walkhugetlbrange function in 'mm/pagewalk.c' file in the Linux kernel from v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc1 mishandles holes in hugetlb ranges. This allows local users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory via crafted use of the mincore system call...

USN-3169-1 linux vulnerabilities
Dmitry Vyukov discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize the Code Segment CS in certain error cases. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information kernel memory. CVE-2016-9756 Andrey Konovalov discovered that signed integer overflows...
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...
