CVSS v3.1 |
| Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.2 allows local users to read kernel memory and possibly gain privileges via a negative argument to the sysctl call. |
| The "capabilities" feature in Linux before 2.2.16 allows local users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges by setting the capabilities to prevent a setuid program from dropping privileges, aka the "Linux kernel setuid/setcap vulnerability." |
| The knfsd NFS server in Linux kernel 2.2.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a negative size value. |
| IP masquerading in Linux 2.2.x allows remote attackers to route UDP packets through the internal interface by modifying the external source IP address and port number to match those of an established connection. |
| The Linux 2.2.x kernel does not restrict the number of Unix domain sockets as defined by the wmem_max parameter, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by requesting a large number of sockets. |
| strace allows local users to read arbitrary files via memory mapped file names. |
| Bug in AMD K6 processor on Linux 2.0.x and 2.1.x kernels allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via a particular sequence of instructions, possibly related to accessing addresses outside of segments. |
| Linux 2.0.34 does not properly prevent users from sending SIGIO signals to arbitrary processes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by sending SIGIO to processes that do not catch it. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| mknod in Linux 2.2 follows symbolic links, which could allow local users to overwrite files or gain privileges. |
| Linux kernel before 2.3.18 or 2.2.13pre15, with SLIP and PPP options, allows local unprivileged users to forge IP packets via the TIOCSETD option on tty devices. |
| Vulnerability when Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled in Linux 2.2.10 and earlier with ipchains, or FreeBSD 3.2 with ipfw, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a ping -R (record route) command. |
| Linux 2.1.132 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) by reading a large buffer from a random device (e.g. /dev/urandom), which cannot be interrupted until the read has completed. |
| fte-console in the fte package before 0.46b-4.1 does not drop root privileges, which allows local users to gain root access via the virtual console device. |
| 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. |
| rpc.mountd on Linux, Ultrix, and possibly other operating systems, allows remote attackers to determine the existence of a file on the server by attempting to mount that file, which generates different error messages depending on whether the file exists or not. |
| Linux 2.0.37 does not properly encode the Custom segment limit, which allows local users to gain root privileges by accessing and modifying kernel memory. |
| The Linux kernel before 2.6.16.9 and the FreeBSD kernel, when running on AMD64 and other 7th and 8th generation AuthenticAMD processors, only save/restore the FOP, FIP, and FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE/FXRSTOR when an exception is pending, which allows one process to determine portions of the state of floating point instructions of other processes, which can be leveraged to obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys. NOTE: this is the documented behavior of AMD64 processors, but it is inconsistent with Intel processors in a security-relevant fashion that was not addressed by the kernels. |
| The ip_push_pending_frames function in Linux 2.4.x and 2.6.x before 2.6.16 increments the IP ID field when sending a RST after receiving unsolicited TCP SYN-ACK packets, which allows remote attackers to conduct an Idle Scan (nmap -sI) attack, which bypasses intended protections against such attacks. |
