CVE-2017-7495 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
fs/ext4/inode.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.2, when ext4 data=ordered mode is used, mishandles a needs-flushing-before-commit list, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from other users' files in opportunistic circumstances by waiting for a hardware reset, creating a new file, making write system calls, and reading this file.
CVE-2017-7472 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.10.13 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a series of KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring calls.
CVE-2017-7477 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 6.9 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
Heap-based buffer overflow in drivers/net/macsec.c in the MACsec module in the Linux kernel through 4.10.12 allows attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the use of a MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1 size in conjunction with the NETIF_F_FRAGLIST feature, leading to an error in the skb_to_sgvec function.
CVE-2017-7542 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The ip6_find_1stfragopt function in net/ipv6/output_core.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and infinite loop) by leveraging the ability to open a raw socket.
CVE-2017-2583 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.6 MEDIUM 8.4 HIGH
The load_segment_descriptor implementation in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.5 improperly emulates a "MOV SS, NULL selector" instruction, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or gain guest OS privileges via a crafted application.
CVE-2017-2647 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.18 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via vectors involving a NULL value for a certain match field, related to the keyring_search_iterator function in keyring.c.
CVE-2017-2671 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The ping_unhash function in net/ipv4/ping.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.8 is too late in obtaining a certain lock and consequently cannot ensure that disconnect function calls are safe, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging access to the protocol value of IPPROTO_ICMP in a socket system call.
CVE-2017-2634 2 Linux, Redhat 5 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux Desktop, Enterprise Linux Server and 2 more 2023-02-12 7.8 HIGH 7.5 HIGH
It was found that the Linux kernel's Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) implementation before 2.6.22.17 used the IPv4-only inet_sk_rebuild_header() function for both IPv4 and IPv6 DCCP connections, which could result in memory corruptions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system.
CVE-2017-2618 3 Debian, Linux, Redhat 8 Debian Linux, Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux and 5 more 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handling of clearing SELinux attributes on /proc/pid/attr files before 4.9.10. An empty (null) write to this file can crash the system by causing the system to attempt to access unmapped kernel memory.
CVE-2017-2596 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
The nested_vmx_check_vmptr function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.8 improperly emulates the VMXON instruction, which allows KVM L1 guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS memory consumption) by leveraging the mishandling of page references.
CVE-2017-12193 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11 mishandles node splitting, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) via a crafted application, as demonstrated by the keyring key type, and key addition and link creation operations.
CVE-2017-15126 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 9.3 HIGH 8.1 HIGH
A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/userfaultfd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.6. The issue is related to the handling of fork failure when dealing with event messages. Failure to fork correctly can lead to a situation where a fork event will be removed from an already freed list of events with userfaultfd_ctx_put().
CVE-2017-15127 2 Linux, Redhat 3 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Mrg 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
A flaw was found in the hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte function in mm/hugetlb.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13. A superfluous implicit page unlock for VM_SHARED hugetlbfs mapping could trigger a local denial of service (BUG).
CVE-2017-15116 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The rngapi_reset function in crypto/rng.c in the Linux kernel before 4.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference).
CVE-2017-12192 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The keyctl_read_key function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Key Management subcomponent in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5 does not properly consider that a key may be possessed but negatively instantiated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS and system crash) via a crafted KEYCTL_READ operation.
CVE-2017-15129 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
A use-after-free vulnerability was found in network namespaces code affecting the Linux kernel before 4.14.11. The function get_net_ns_by_id() in net/core/net_namespace.c does not check for the net::count value after it has found a peer network in netns_ids idr, which could lead to double free and memory corruption. This vulnerability could allow an unprivileged local user to induce kernel memory corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although it is thought to be unlikely.
CVE-2016-9588 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9 mismanages the #BP and #OF exceptions, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) by declining to handle an exception thrown by an L2 guest.
CVE-2017-12168 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 6.0 MEDIUM
The access_pmu_evcntr function in arch/arm64/kvm/sys_regs.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.11 allows privileged KVM guest OS users to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and host OS crash) by accessing the Performance Monitors Cycle Count Register (PMCCNTR).
CVE-2017-12190 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
The bio_map_user_iov and bio_unmap_user functions in block/bio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 do unbalanced refcounting when a SCSI I/O vector has small consecutive buffers belonging to the same page. The bio_add_pc_page function merges them into one, but the page reference is never dropped. This causes a memory leak and possible system lockup (exploitable against the host OS by a guest OS user, if a SCSI disk is passed through to a virtual machine) due to an out-of-memory condition.
CVE-2017-12188 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2023-02-12 6.9 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.5, when nested virtualisation is used, does not properly traverse guest pagetable entries to resolve a guest virtual address, which allows L1 guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the host OS or cause a denial of service (incorrect index during page walking, and host OS crash), aka an "MMU potential stack buffer overrun."
