linux kmod/ptrace bug - details

Hello There are many discussions on slashdot for example on the recent linux ptrace & kmod bug. I'll try to clarify what is this all about. It's a local root vulnerability. It's exploitable only if: 1. the kernel is built with modules and kernel module loader enabled and 2...

CVE-2003-0127

The kernel module loader in Linux kernel 2.2.x before 2.2.25, and 2.4.x before 2.4.21, allows local users to gain root privileges by using ptrace to attach to a child process that is spawned by the kernel...

CVE-2003-0127

The Linux kernel version 2.2.x before 2.2.25 and 2.4.x before 2.4.21 contains a vulnerability in the kernel module loader . This flaw allows local users to escalate privileges to root by utilizing ptrace to attach to a child process spawned by the kernel. While specific exploit links are not prov...

CVE-2002-1409

CVE-2002-1409 affects HP-UX 11.00 through 11.11, where ptrace handling allows a local user to trigger a denial-of-service (data page fault panic) via an incorrect reference to thread register state. The available documents confirm the affected platform and the root cause (ptrace thread-state refe...

CVE-2002-1409: Undefined Security Weakness

ptrace on HP-UX 11.00 through 11.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service data page fault panic via "an incorrect reference to thread register state."...

CVE-2001-1384

CVE-2001-1384 affects the Linux kernel in 2.2.x up to 2.2.19 and 2.4.x up to 2.4.9. The vulnerability is a local privilege escalation: a local user can gain root by ptracing a setuid/setgid process that itself executes an unprivileged program (e.g., newgrp). The provided documents do not specify ...
