CVE-1999-0381 2 Debian, Linux 2 Debian Linux, Linux Kernel 2008-09-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
super 3.11.6 and other versions have a buffer overflow in the syslog utility which allows a local user to gain root access.
CVE-2008-3901 2 Linux, Suspend2 2 Linux Kernel, Software Suspend 2 2008-09-05 2.1 LOW N/A
Software suspend 2 2-2.2.1, when used with the Linux kernel 2.6.16, stores pre-boot authentication passwords in the BIOS Keyboard buffer and does not clear this buffer after use, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the physical memory locations associated with this buffer.
CVE-2008-3671 2 Acronis, Linux 2 True Image Echo Server, Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
Acronis True Image Echo Server 9.x build 8072 on Linux does not properly encrypt backups to an FTP server, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.
CVE-2008-0731 3 Linux, Novell, Suse 3 Linux Kernel, Apparmor, Open Suse 2008-09-05 7.5 HIGH N/A
The Linux kernel before 2.6.18.8-0.8 in SUSE openSUSE 10.2 does not properly handle failure of an AppArmor change_hat system call, which might allow attackers to trigger the unconfining of an apparmored task.
CVE-2007-0997 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 6.9 MEDIUM N/A
Race condition in the tee (sys_tee) system call in the Linux kernel 2.6.17 through 2.6.17.6 might allow local users to cause a denial of service (system crash), obtain sensitive information (kernel memory contents), or gain privileges via unspecified vectors related to a potentially dropped ipipe lock during a race between two pipe readers.
CVE-2006-7164 3 Ibm, Linux, Unix 3 Websphere Application Server, Linux Kernel, Unix 2008-09-05 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
SimpleFileServlet in IBM WebSphere Application Server 5.0.1 through 5.0.2.7 on Linux and UNIX does not block certain invalid URIs and does not issue a security challenge, which allows remote attackers to read secure files and obtain sensitive information via certain requests.
CVE-2005-3753 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 7.8 HIGH N/A
Linux kernel before after 2.6.12 and before 2.6.13.1 might allow attackers to cause a denial of service (Oops) via certain IPSec packets that cause alignment problems in standard multi-block cipher processors. NOTE: it is not clear whether this issue can be triggered by an attacker.
CVE-2005-2617 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 3.6 LOW N/A
The syscall32_setup_pages function in syscall32.c for Linux kernel 2.6.12 and later, on the 64-bit x86 platform, does not check the return value of the insert_vm_struct function, which allows local users to trigger a memory leak via a 32-bit application with crafted ELF headers.
CVE-2005-0916 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 2.1 LOW N/A
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.
CVE-2005-0489 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 4.9 MEDIUM N/A
The /proc handling (proc/base.c) Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.17 allows local users to cause a denial of service via unknown vectors that cause an invalid access of free memory.
CVE-2004-2731 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 4.4 MEDIUM N/A
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.
CVE-2004-0997 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
Unspecified vulnerability in the ptrace MIPS assembly code in Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.17 allows local users to gain privileges via unknown vectors.
CVE-2003-1161 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 7.2 HIGH N/A
exit.c in Linux kernel 2.6-test9-CVS, as stored on kernel.bkbits.net, was modified to contain a backdoor, which could allow local users to elevate their privileges by passing __WCLONE|__WALL to the sys_wait4 function.
CVE-2002-1976 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 2.1 LOW N/A
ifconfig, when used on the Linux kernel 2.2 and later, does not report when the network interface is in promiscuous mode if it was put in promiscuous mode using PACKET_MR_PROMISC, which could allow attackers to sniff the network without detection, as demonstrated using libpcap.
CVE-2002-1963 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 2.1 LOW N/A
Linux kernel 2.4.1 through 2.4.19 sets root's NR_RESERVED_FILES limit to 10 files, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) by opening 10 setuid binaries.
CVE-2002-1573 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 10.0 HIGH N/A
Unspecified vulnerability in the pcilynx ieee1394 firewire driver (pcilynx.c) in Linux kernel before 2.4.20 has unknown impact and attack vectors, related to "wrap handling."
CVE-2002-1572 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 10.0 HIGH N/A
Signed integer overflow in the bttv_read function in the bttv driver (bttv-driver.c) in Linux kernel before 2.4.20 has unknown impact and attack vectors.
CVE-2002-1571 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 2.1 LOW N/A
The linux 2.4 kernel before 2.4.19 assumes that the fninit instruction clears all registers, which could lead to an information leak on processors that do not clear all relevant SSE registers.
CVE-2002-0510 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The UDP implementation in Linux 2.4.x kernels keeps the IP Identification field at 0 for all non-fragmented packets, which could allow remote attackers to determine that a target system is running Linux.
CVE-2002-0499 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2008-09-05 2.1 LOW N/A
The d_path function in Linux kernel 2.2.20 and earlier, and 2.4.18 and earlier, truncates long pathnames without generating an error, which could allow local users to force programs to perform inappropriate operations on the wrong directories.
