NVIDIA Linux GPU Display Driver 304.x < 304.132 / 340.x < 340.98 / 361.93.x < 361.93.03 / 367.x < 367.55 / 370.x < 370.28 Multiple Vulnerabilities

The version of the NVIDIA GPU display driver installed on the remote Linux host is 304.x prior to 304.132, 340.x prior to 340.98, 361.93.x prior to 361.93.03, 367.x prior to 367.55, or 370.x prior to 370.28. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - A flaw exists in the kernel-mo...

CVE-2016-5195

Race condition in mm/gup.c in the Linux kernel 2.x through 4.x before 4.8.3 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging incorrect handling of a copy-on-write COW feature to write to a read-only memory mapping, as exploited in the wild in October 2016, aka "Dirty COW."...

The Linux kernel through kill to mention the right vulnerability alerts-a vulnerability alert-the black bar safety net

The Linux kernel in the processing memory write copies Copy-on-Write when the existence conditions of competitive vulnerability, the result can be destruction of private read-only memory mapping. A low-privileged local user can exploit this vulnerability to obtain additional read-only memory-mapp...

kernel: mm: privilege escalation via MAP_PRIVATE COW breakage

A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel's memory subsystem handled the copy-on-write COW breakage of private read-only memory mappings. An unprivileged, local user could use this flaw to gain write access to otherwise read-only memory mappings and thus increase their privileges on...

MGASA-2016-0347 Updated kernel packages fixes security vulnerabilities

This update is based on the upstream 4.4.26 kernel and fixes at least theese security issues: A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel's memory subsystem handled the copy-on-write COW breakage of private read-only memory mappings. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to ga...

kernel: kvm: reporting emulation failures to userspace

It was found that reporting emulation failures to user space could lead to either a local CVE-2014-7842 or a L2-L1 CVE-2010-5313 denial of service. In the case of a local denial of service, an attacker must have access to the MMIO area or be able to access an I/O port. Please note that on certain...
