CVE-2016-10225

The sunxi-debug driver in Allwinner 3.4 legacy kernel for H3, A83T and H8 devices allows local users to gain root privileges by sending “rootmydevice” to /proc/sunxidebug/sunxidebug. Recent assessments: h00die at March 24, 2020 11:24pm UTC reported: This vulnerability is unbelievably easy to...

kernel: Stack corruption while reading /proc/keys when gcc stack protector is enabled

It was found that when the gcc stack protector was enabled, reading the /proc/keys file could cause a panic in the Linux kernel due to stack corruption. This happened because an incorrect buffer size was used to hold a 64-bit timeout value rendered as weeks...

CVE-2017-5967

CVE-2017-5967 affects the Linux kernel: when CONFIG_TIMER_STATS is enabled, the time subsystem through kernel 4.9.9 allows a local attacker to reveal real PID values (outside of PID namespaces) by reading /proc/timer_list, via the print_timer path in kernel/time/timer_list.c and the __timer_stats...

UBUNTU-CVE-2017-2618

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handling of clearing SELinux attributes on /proc/pid/attr files before 4.9.10. An empty null write to this file can crash the system by causing the system to attempt to access unmapped kernel memory...

shopify-scripts: Crash: calling Proc::initialize_copy with a Proc instance where initialize never ran leads to a crash

Using the same trick from 184661 with Proc leads to another crash, this time in Proc related functions. Again, haven't looked into it besides validity testing and an initial code lookup more detailed investigation + possible patches when there's more time on my side. Again, to give you guys the...

UBUNTU-CVE-2016-8649

lxc-attach in LXC before 1.0.9 and 2.x before 2.0.6 allows an attacker inside of an unprivileged container to use an inherited file descriptor, of the host's /proc, to access the rest of the host's filesystem via the openat family of syscalls...

kernel: Stack overflow via ecryptfs and /proc/$pid/environ

It was found that stacking a file system over procfs in the Linux kernel could lead to a kernel stack overflow due to deep nesting, as demonstrated by mounting ecryptfs over procfs and creating a recursion by mapping /proc/environ. An unprivileged, local user could potentially use this flaw to...
