CVSS v3.1 |
| Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x up to 2.6.16 allows local users to bypass IPC permissions and modify a readonly attachment of shared memory by using mprotect to give write permission to the attachment. NOTE: some original raw sources combined this issue with CVE-2006-1524, but they are different bugs. |
| Certain USB drivers in the Linux 2.4 kernel use the copy_to_user function on uninitialized structures, which could allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading memory that was not cleared from previous usage. |
| The virtual memory implementation in Linux kernel 2.6.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by running lsof a large number of times in a way that produces a heavy system load. |
| The Equalizer Load-balancer for serial network interfaces (eql.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service via a non-existent device name that triggers a null dereference. |
| A race condition in the way env_start and env_end pointers are initialized in the execve system call and used in fs/proc/base.c on Linux 2.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash). |
| A "potential" buffer overflow exists in the panic() function in Linux 2.4.x, although it may not be exploitable due to the functionality of panic. |
| Integer overflow in the hpsb_alloc_packet function (incorrectly reported as alloc_hpsb_packet) in IEEE 1394 (Firewire) driver 2.4 and 2.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via the functions (1) raw1394_write, (2) state_connected, (3) handle_remote_request, or (4) hpsb_make_writebpacket. |
| Linux kernel before 2.6.15.5, when running on Intel processors, allows local users to cause a denial of service ("endless recursive fault") via unknown attack vectors related to a "bad elf entry address." |
| artswrapper in aRts, when running setuid root on Linux 2.6.0 or later versions, does not check the return value of the setuid function call, which allows local users to gain root privileges by causing setuid to fail, which prevents artsd from dropping privileges. |
| Linux kernel before 2.6.16.5 does not properly handle uncanonical return addresses on Intel EM64T CPUs, which reports an exception in the SYSRET instead of the next instruction, which causes the kernel exception handler to run on the user stack with the wrong GS. |
| A regression error in the restore_all code path of the 4/4GB split support for non-hugemem Linux kernels on Red Hat Linux Desktop and Enterprise Linux 4 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified vectors. |
| SCTP conntrack (ip_conntrack_proto_sctp.c) in netfilter for Linux kernel 2.6.17 before 2.6.17.3 and 2.6.16 before 2.6.16.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a packet without any chunks, which causes a variable to contain an invalid value that is later used to dereference a pointer. |
| Listening TCP ports are sequentially allocated, allowing spoofing attacks. |
| The framebuffer driver in Linux kernel 2.6.x does not properly use the fb_copy_cmap function, with unknown impact. |
| Race condition in Linux kernel 2.6.17.4 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges by using prctl with PR_SET_DUMPABLE in a way that causes /proc/self/environ to become setuid root. |
| The (1) __futex_atomic_op and (2) futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic functions in Linux kernel 2.6.17-rc4 to 2.6.18-rc2 perform the atomic futex operation in the kernel address space instead of the user address space, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash). |
| smbmnt in Samba 2.x and 3.x on Linux 2.6, when installed setuid, allows local users to gain root privileges by mounting a Samba share that contains a setuid root program, whose setuid attributes are not cleared when the share is mounted. |
| 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. |
| KDE klock allows local users to kill arbitrary processes by specifying an arbitrary PID in the .kss.pid file. |
| The JFS file system code in Linux 2.4.x has an information leak in which in-memory data is written to the device for the JFS file system, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the raw device. |
