security flaw
Memory leak in the seqfile implementation in the SCSI procfs interface sg.c in Linux kernel 2.6.13 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service memory consumption via certain repeated reads from the /proc/scsi/sg/devices file, which is not properly handled when the next iterator...

Ubuntu 4.10 / 5.04 : linux-source-2.6.10, linux-source-2.6.8.1 vulnerabilities (USN-178-1)
Oleg Nesterov discovered a local Denial of Service vulnerability in the timer handling. When a non group-leader thread called exec to execute a different program while an itimer was pending, the timer expiry would signal the old group leader task, which did not exist any more. This caused a kerne...
CVE-2005-4605
CVE-2005-4605 concerns the Linux kernel procfs implementation. A signedness error in the proc_misc.c code (pre-2.6.15) allows a local attacker to read sensitive kernel memory by manipulating a signed value added to an unsigned value, disclosed via /proc interactions. Public reports document the a...
