CVE-2004-0491

CVE-2004-0491 concerns a flaw in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 where the linux-2.4.21-mlock.patch mismanages the mlock page count when a process unlocks pages owned by another process, allowing local users to mlock more memory than the rlIMIT. The issue is documented across multiple sources (NVD, CV...

CVE-2004-1057

Multiple drivers in Linux kernel 2.4.19 and earlier do not properly mark memory with the VMIO flag, which causes incorrect reference counts and may lead to a denial of service kernel panic when accessing freed kernel pages...

CVE-2004-1092

CVE-2004-1092 affects Midnight Commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier. The issue allows remote Denial-of-Service by causing mc to free unallocated memory (root cause: improper memory handling).
