DEBIAN-CVE-2014-3917

kernel/auditsc.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5, when CONFIGAUDITSYSCALL is enabled with certain syscall rules, allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive single-bit values from kernel memory or cause a denial of service OOPS via a large value of a syscall number...

CVE-2014-3917

CVE-2014-3917 affects the Linux kernel up to 3.14.5, specifically kernel/auditsc.c when CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is enabled with certain syscall rules. Local users can obtain sensitive single-bit values from kernel memory or trigger a denial of service (OOPS) by using a large syscall number. Exploitat...

FreeBSD -- ktrace kernel memory disclosure

Problem Description: Due to an overlooked merge to -STABLE branches, the size for page fault kernel trace entries was set incorrectly. Impact: A user who can enable kernel process tracing could end up reading the contents of kernel memory. Such memory might contain sensitive information, such as...

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS : linux-lts-saucy vulnerabilities (USN-2225-1)

Matthew Daley reported an information leak in the floppy disk driver of the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory. CVE-2014-1738 Matthew Daley reported a flaw in the handling of ioctl commands by the floppy...

kernel: block: floppy: privilege escalation via FDRAWCMD floppy ioctl command

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's floppy driver handled user space provided data in certain error code paths while processing FDRAWCMD IOCTL commands. A local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use this flaw to free using the kfree function arbitrary kernel memory. CVE-2014-173...
