Linux ≫ Linux Kernel

Unknown vulnerability in Linux kernel 2.4.x, 2.5.x, and 2.6.x allows NFS clients to cause a denial of service via O_DIRECT.

Netfilter in Linux kernel 2.6.8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via crafted IP packet fragments.

Netfilter in the Linux kernel 2.6.8.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain packet fragments that are reassembled twice, which causes a data structure to be allocated twice.

The ext2_make_empty function call in the Linux kernel before 2.6.11.6 does not properly initialize memory when creating a block for a new directory entry, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information by reading the block.

The netfilter/iptables module in Linux before 2.6.8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) or bypass firewall rules via crafted packets, which are not properly handled by the skb_checksum_help function.

Linux kernel 2.6.10 and 2.6.11rc1-bk6 uses different size types for offset arguments to the proc_file_read and locks_read_proc functions, which leads to a heap-based buffer overflow when a signed comparison causes negative integers to be used in a po...

Signedness error in the copy_from_read_buf function in n_tty.c for Linux kernel 2.6.10 and 2.6.11rc1 allows local users to read kernel memory via a negative argument.

The atm_get_addr function in addr.c for Linux kernel 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 before 2.6.11-rc4 may allow local users to trigger a buffer overflow via negative arguments.

The reiserfs_copy_from_user_to_file_region function in reiserfs/file.c for Linux kernel 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 before 2.6.11-rc4, when running on 64-bit architectures, may allow local users to trigger a buffer overflow as a result of casting discrepancies...

Multiple "range checking flaws" in the ISO9660 filesystem handler in Linux 2.6.11 and earlier may allow attackers to cause a denial of service or corrupt memory via a crafted filesystem.
