CVSS v3.1 |
| The exit_thread function (process.c) in Linux kernel 2.6 through 2.6.5 does not invalidate the per-TSS io_bitmap pointers if a process obtains IO access permissions from the ioperm function but does not drop those permissions when it exits, which allows other processes to access the per-TSS pointers, access restricted memory locations, and possibly gain privileges. |
| The shmem_nopage function in shmem.c for the tmpfs driver in Linux kernel 2.6 does not properly verify the address argument, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via an invalid address. |
| Memory leak in direct-io.c in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain O_DIRECT (direct IO) write requests. |
| The ELF loader in Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.25 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted ELF file with an interpreter with an invalid arch (architecture), which triggers a BUG() when an invalid VMA is unmapped. |
| AIO in the Linux kernel 2.6.11 on the PPC64 or IA64 architectures with CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE enabled allows local users to cause a denial of service (system panic) via a process that executes the io_queue_init function but exits without running io_queue_release, which causes exit_aio and is_hugepage_only_range to fail. |
| Integer overflow in the ip_setsockopt function in Linux kernel 2.4.22 through 2.4.25 and 2.6.1 through 2.6.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via the MCAST_MSFILTER socket option. |
| Multiple integer overflows in Sbus PROM driver (drivers/sbus/char/openprom.c) for the Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, 2.6.x up to 2.6.7, and possibly later versions, allow local users to execute arbitrary code by specifying (1) a small buffer size to the copyin_string function or (2) a negative buffer size to the copyin function. |
| Listening TCP ports are sequentially allocated, allowing spoofing attacks. |
| Oversized ICMP ping packets can result in a denial of service, aka Ping o' Death. |
| Integer overflow in Linux kernel 2.6 allows local users to overwrite kernel memory by writing to a sysfs file. |
| The rwho/rwhod service is running, which exposes machine status and user information. |
| SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 on the S/390 platform does not properly handle a certain privileged instruction, which allows local users to gain root privileges. |
| IRC connection tracking helper module in the netfilter subsystem for Linux 2.4.18-pre9 and earlier does not properly set the mask for conntrack expectations for incoming DCC connections, which could allow remote attackers to bypass intended firewall restrictions. |
| The MAC module in Netfilter in Linux kernel 2.4.1 through 2.4.11, when configured to filter based on MAC addresses, allows remote attackers to bypass packet filters via small packets. |
| Linux bdash game has a buffer overflow that allows local users to gain root access. |
| Linux kernel 2.2.19 enables CAP_SYS_RESOURCE for setuid processes, which allows local users to exceed disk quota restrictions during execution of setuid programs. |
| Race condition in ptrace in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.2 allows local users to gain privileges by using ptrace to track and modify a running setuid process. |
| The 64 bit ELF support in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.10, on 64-bit architectures, does not properly check for overlapping VMA (virtual memory address) allocations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted ELF or a.out file. |
| The e1000 driver for Linux kernel 2.4.26 and earlier does not properly initialize memory before using it, which allows local users to read portions of kernel memory. NOTE: this issue was originally incorrectly reported as a "buffer overflow" by some sources. |
| Race condition in the do_add_counters function in netfilter for Linux kernel 2.6.16 allows local users with CAP_NET_ADMIN capabilities to read kernel memory by triggering the race condition in a way that produces a size value that is inconsistent with allocated memory, which leads to a buffer over-read in IPT_ENTRY_ITERATE. |
