SUSE CVE-2017-1000365

The Linux Kernel imposes a size restriction on the arguments and environmental strings passed through RLIMITSTACK/RLIMINFINITY 1/4 of the size, but does not take the argument and environment pointers into account, which allows attackers to bypass this limitation. This affects Linux Kernel version...

SUSE CVE-2017-1000371

The offset2lib patch as used by the Linux Kernel contains a vulnerability, if RLIMITSTACK is set to RLIMINFINITY and 1 Gigabyte of memory is allocated the maximum under the 1/4 restriction then the stack will be grown down to 0x80000000, and as the PIE binary is mapped above 0x80000000 the minimu...

kernel: unlimiting the stack disables ASLR

A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation. Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86 machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMITSTACK resource to unlimited...

BSA-2017-359

Security Advisory ID : BSA-2017-359 Component : Kernel Revision : 2.0: Interim The offset2lib patch as used by the Linux Kernel contains a vulnerability, if RLIMITSTACK is set to RLIMITINFINITY and 1 Gigabyte of memory is allocated the maximum under the 1/4 restriction then the stack will be grow...

USN-3381-1 linux vulnerabilities

Peter Pi discovered that the colormap handling for frame buffer devices in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow. A local attacker could use this to disclose sensitive information kernel memory. CVE-2016-8405 It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly restrict RLIMITSTACK...

USN-3378-2 linux-lts-xenial vulnerabilities

USN-3378-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux Hardware Enablement HWE kernel from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Fan Wu and Shixiong Zhao discovered a race condition between inotify events and vfs...

USN-3378-1 linux, linux-aws, linux-gke, linux-raspi2, linux-snapdragon vulnerabilities

Fan Wu and Shixiong Zhao discovered a race condition between inotify events and vfs rename operations in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service system crash or execute arbitrary code. CVE-2017-7533 It was discovered that the Linux kernel did n...
