Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions prior to 4.13.11 Description: The issue is related to the XFRM dump policy implementation in the Linux kernel, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service due to a use-after-free error. This...

kernel: Out-of-bounds heap access in xfrm

Out-of-bounds kernel heap access vulnerability was found in xfrm, kernel's IP framework for transforming packets. An error dealing with netlink messages from an unprivileged user leads to arbitrary read/write and privilege escalation...

kernel: Possible heap buffer overflow in brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx()

Kernel memory corruption due to a buffer overflow was found in brcmfcfg80211mgmttx function in Linux kernels from v3.9-rc1 to v4.13-rc1. The vulnerability can be triggered by sending a crafted NL80211CMDFRAME packet via netlink. This flaw is unlikely to be triggered remotely as certain userspace...
