security flaw

net/ipv4/netfilter/ipconntrackcore.c in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6, and possibly net/ipv4/netfilter/nfconntrackl3protoipv4.c in 2.6, does not clear sockaddrin.sinzero before returning IPv4 socket names from the getsockopt function with SOORIGINALDST, which allows local users to obtain portions of...

security flaw

The IPv6 flow label handling code ip6flowlabel.c in Linux kernels 2.4 up to 2.4.32 and 2.6 before 2.6.14 modifies the wrong variable in certain circumstances, which allows local users to corrupt kernel memory or cause a denial of service crash by triggering a free of non-allocated memory...

security flaw

Multiple vulnerabilities in the IGMP functionality for Linux kernel 2.4.22 to 2.4.28, and 2.6.x to 2.6.9, allow local and remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via 1 the ipmcsource function, which decrements a counter to -1, or 2 the igmpmarksources function, whi...

security flaw

The ELF loader in Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.25 allows local users to cause a denial of service crash via a crafted ELF file with an interpreter with an invalid arch architecture, which triggers a BUG when an invalid VMA is unmapped...

security flaw

Unknown vulnerability in the Linux kernel before 2.4.23, on the AMD AMD64 and Intel EM64T architectures, associated with "setting up TSS limits," allows local users to cause a denial of service crash and possibly execute arbitrary code...
