linux linux kernel 2.6.16.27 vulnerabilities and exploits

(subscribe to this query)

Use-after-free vulnerability in the xacct_add_tsk function in kernel/tsacct.c in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.19 allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (system crash) via a taskstats TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_PID c...

The perfmonctl system call (sys_perfmonctl) in Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6 prior to 2.6.18, when running on Itanium systems, does not properly track the reference count for file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption).

The seqfile handling (ip6fl_get_n function in ip6_flowlabel.c) in Linux kernel 2.6 up to 2.6.18-stable allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang or oops) via unspecified manipulations that trigger an infinite loop while searching for flowlabels.

The wake_futex_pi function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.33-rc7 does not properly handle certain unlock operations for a Priority Inheritance (PI) futex, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) and possibly have unspecified other impact v...

net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c in the ebtables module in the netfilter framework in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.33-rc4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for setting or modifying rules, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and configure ar...

Use-after-free vulnerability in the fasync_helper function in fs/fcntl.c in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.33-rc4-git1 allows local users to gain privileges via vectors that include enabling O_ASYNC (aka FASYNC or FIOASYNC) on a locked file, and then closing this file.

The do_pages_move function in mm/migrate.c in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.33-rc7 does not validate node values, which allows local users to read arbitrary kernel memory locations, cause a denial of service (OOPS), and possibly have unspecified other impact by specifying a node ...

Buffer overflow in the bufprint function in capiutil.c in libcapi, as used in Linux kernel 2.6.9 to 2.6.20 and isdn4k-utils, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly gain privileges via a crafted CAPI packet.

The do_ipv6_setsockopt function in net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c in Linux kernel prior to 2.6.20, and possibly other versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (oops) by calling setsockopt with the IPV6_RTHDR option name and possibly a zero option length or invalid opti...
