CVE-2014-3880

The 1 execve and 2 fexecve system calls in the FreeBSD kernel 8.4 before p11, 9.1 before p14, 9.2 before p7, and 10.0 before p4 destroys the virtual memory address space and mappings for a process before all threads have terminated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service triple-fau...

DEBIAN-CVE-2014-3917

kernel/auditsc.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5, when CONFIGAUDITSYSCALL is enabled with certain syscall rules, allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive single-bit values from kernel memory or cause a denial of service OOPS via a large value of a syscall number...

CVE-2014-3215

seunshare in policycoreutils 2.2.5 is owned by root with 4755 permissions, and executes programs in a way that changes the relationship between the setuid system call and the getresuid saved set-user-ID value, which makes it easier for local users to gain privileges by leveraging a program that...

The ptrace system call in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.x, allows local users to cause a denial of service system crash or obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted PTLDINFO operation...

CVE-2014-0930

CVE-2014-0930 involves IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x where the ptrace() syscall can be abused via a crafted PT_LDINFO operation. The root cause is a flaw in ptrace handling that may allow local users to crash the system (DoS) and potentially read kernel memory. Connected telemetry confirms...

CVE-2014-2678

CVE-2014-2678 affects the Linux kernel (net/rds/iw.c). The rds_iw_laddr_check function can be triggered by a bind() on an RDS socket on systems lacking RDS transports, enabling local attackers to cause a NULL pointer dereference and a system crash (DoS). This is described as affecting kernels up ...
