kernel: size_t-to-int conversion vulnerability in the filesystem layer

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's seqfile in the Filesystem layer. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to gain access to out-of-bound memory, leading to a system crash, leak of internal kernel information and can escalate privileges. The issue results...

Updated kernel packages fix security vulnerabilities

This kernel update is based on upstream 5.10.19 and fixes at least the following security issues: An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the ARM SIGPAGE functionality of Linux Kernel. A userland application can read the contents of the sigpage, which can leak kernel memory contents. An...

Scientific Linux Security Update : kernel on SL7.x x86_64 (20170525)

Security Fixes : - It was found that the packetsetring function of the Linux kernel's networking implementation did not properly validate certain block-size data. A local attacker with CAPNETRAW capability could use this flaw to trigger a buffer overflow, resulting in the crash of the system. Due...

CVE-2016-7910

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of seqfile where a local attacker could manipulate memory in the put function pointer. This could lead to memory corruption and possible privileged escalation...

CVE-2009-1243

net/ipv4/udp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.29.1 performs an unlocking step in certain incorrect circumstances, which allows local users to cause a denial of service panic by reading zero bytes from the /proc/net/udp file and unspecified other files, related to the "udp seqfile infrastructure."...

CVE-2009-1243: Improper Locking

net/ipv4/udp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.29.1 performs an unlocking step in certain incorrect circumstances, which allows local users to cause a denial of service panic by reading zero bytes from the /proc/net/udp file and unspecified other files, related to the "udp seqfile infrastructure."...

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...

CVE-2005-2800

CVE-2005-2800 is a memory leak in the Linux kernel's SCSI procfs sg(devices) interface (for Linux 2.6.13 and earlier). Exploitation arises from repeated reads of /proc/scsi/sg/devices, leading to memory consumption and potential Denial of Service. Publicly documented references describe the issue...
