CVE-2015-8215

net/ipv6/addrconf.c in the IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel before 4.0 does not validate attempted changes to the MTU value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service packet loss via a value that is 1 smaller than the minimum compliant value or 2 larger than the MTU of a...

x86: CPU lockup during exception delivery

ISSUE DESCRIPTION When a benign exception occurs while delivering another benign exception, it is architecturally specified that these would be delivered sequentially. There are, however, cases where this results in an infinite loop inside the CPU, which in the virtualized case can be broken only...

CVE-2015-6526

The perfcallchainuser64 function in arch/powerpc/perf/callchain.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0.2 on ppc64 platforms allows local users to cause a denial of service infinite loop via a deep 64-bit userspace backtrace...

CVE-2015-4001

Integer signedness error in the ozhcdgetdesccnf function in drivers/staging/ozwpan/ozhcd.c in the OZWPAN driver in the Linux kernel through 4.0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet...

Rekall - The Most Complete Memory Analysis Framework

The Rekall Framework is a completely open collection of tools, implemented in Python under the GNU General Public License, for the extraction of digital artifacts from volatile memory RAM samples. The extraction techniques are performed completely independent of the system being investigated but...

xen-kernel -- Information leak through XEN_DOMCTL_gettscinfo

The Xen Project reports: The handler for XENDOMCTLgettscinfo failed to initialize a padding field subsequently copied to guest memory. A similar leak existed in XENSYSCTLgetdomaininfolist, which is being addressed here regardless of that operation being declared unsafe for disaggregation by XSA-7...
