lost fput in a 32-bit ioctl on 64-bit x86 systems

The Linux kernel before 2.6.9-42.0.8 in Red Hat 4.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service kernel OOPS from null dereference via fput in a 32-bit ioctl on 64-bit x86 systems, an incomplete fix of CVE-2005-3044.1...

NFS lockd deadlock

The nlmclntmarkreclaim in clntlock.c in NFS lockd in Linux kernel before 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service process crash and deny access to NFS exports via unspecified vectors that trigger a kernel oops null dereference and a deadlock...

CVE-2006-5158

The nlmclntmarkreclaim in clntlock.c in NFS lockd in Linux kernel before 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service process crash and deny access to NFS exports via unspecified vectors that trigger a kernel oops null dereference and a deadlock...

security flaw

Linux kernel 2.6.8 to 2.6.14-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service kernel OOPS via a userspace process that issues a USB Request Block URB to a USB device and terminates before the URB is finished, which leads to a stale pointer reference...

security flaw

Multiple vulnerabilities in Linux kernel before 2.6.13.2 allow local users to cause a denial of service kernel OOPS from null dereference via 1 fput in a 32-bit ioctl on 64-bit x86 systems or 2 sockfdput in the 32-bit routingioctl function on 64-bit systems...

CVE-2003-1288

CVE-2003-1288 concerns multiple race conditions in Linux-VServer 1.22 running on Linux kernel 2.4.23 with SMP. The vulnerability enables local users to trigger a denial of service (kernel oops) via attack vectors affecting the s_info and ip_info data structures and through the forget_original_par...

CVE-2005-3809

The nfattrtotcp function in ipconntrackprototcp.c in ctnetlink in Linux kernel 2.6.14 up to 2.6.14.3 allows attackers to cause a denial of service kernel oops via an update message without private protocol information, which triggers a null dereference...

CVE-2005-2709

The sysctl functionality sysctl.c in Linux kernel before 2.6.14.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service kernel oops and possibly execute code by opening an interface file in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/, waiting until the interface is unregistered, then obtaining and modifying function...

CVE-2005-2548

vlandev.c in the VLAN code for Linux kernel 2.6.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service kernel oops from null dereference via certain UDP packets that lead to a function call with the wrong argument, as demonstrated using snmpwalk on snmpd...
