Linux ≫ Linux Kernel

cryptoloop on Linux kernel 2.6.x, when used on certain file systems with a block size 1024 or greater, has certain "IV computation" weaknesses that allow watermarked files to be detected without decryption.

kmod in the Linux kernel does not set its uid, suid, gid, or sgid to 0, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by sending certain signals to kmod.

The Vicam USB driver in Linux before 2.4.25 does not use the copy_from_user function when copying data from userspace to kernel space, which crosses security boundaries and allows local users to cause a denial of service.

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.

Buffer overflow in the ixj telephony card driver in Linux before 2.4.20 has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Unknown vulnerability in Linux kernel before 2.4.22 allows local users to gain privileges, related to "R128 DRI limits checking."

Stack-based buffer overflow in the ncp_lookup function for ncpfs in Linux kernel 2.4.x allows local users to gain privileges.

The do_mremap function for the mremap system call in Linux 2.2 to 2.2.25, 2.4 to 2.4.24, and 2.6 to 2.6.2, does not properly check the return value from the do_munmap function when the maximum number of VMA descriptors is exceeded, which allows local...

dm-crypt on Linux kernel 2.6.x, when used on certain file systems with a block size 1024 or greater, has certain "IV computation" weaknesses that allow watermarked files to be detected without decryption.

Unknown vulnerability in the eflags checking in the 32-bit ptrace emulation for the Linux kernel on AMD64 systems allows local users to gain privileges.
