CVSS v3.1 |
| ping in iputils before 20001010, as distributed on Red Hat Linux 6.2 through 7J and other operating systems, does not drop privileges after acquiring a raw socket, which increases ping's exposure to bugs that otherwise would occur at lower privileges. |
| 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 sys_add_key function in the keyring code in Linux kernel 2.6.16.1 and 2.6.17-rc1, and possibly earlier versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via keyctl requests that add a key to a user key instead of a keyring key, which causes an invalid dereference in the __keyring_search_one function. |
| Certain modifications to the Linux kernel 2.6.16 and earlier do not add the appropriate Linux Security Modules (LSM) file_permission hooks to the (1) readv and (2) writev functions, which might allow attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. |
| The snmp_trap_decode function in the SNMP NAT helper for Linux kernel before 2.6.16.18 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unspecified remote attack vectors that cause failures in snmp_trap_decode that trigger (1) frees of random memory or (2) frees of previously-freed memory (double-free) by snmp_trap_decode as well as its calling function, as demonstrated via certain test cases of the PROTOS SNMP test suite. |
| Buffer overflow in mhshow in the Linux nmh package allows remote attackers to execute commands via malformed MIME headers in an email message. |
| gpm-root in the gpm package does not properly drop privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by starting a utility from gpm-root. |
| Buffer overflow in imwheel allows local users to gain root privileges via the imwheel-solo script and a long HOME environmental variable. |
| ORBit and esound in Red Hat Linux 6.1 do not use sufficiently random numbers, which allows local users to guess the authentication keys. |
| ORBit and gnome-session in Red Hat Linux 6.1 allows remote attackers to crash a program. |
| screen and rxvt in Red Hat Linux 6.0 do not properly set the modes of tty devices, which allows local users to write to other ttys. |
| Buffer overflow in krb425_conv_principal function in Kerberos 5 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges. |
| Linux gpm program allows local users to cause a denial of service by flooding the /dev/gpmctl device with STREAM sockets. |
| Buffer overflow in mopd (Maintenance Operations Protocol loader daemon) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long file name. |
| mopd (Maintenance Operations Protocol loader daemon) does not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. |
| Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen. |
| Format string vulnerability in use_syslog() function in LPRng 3.6.24 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. |
| modprobe in the modutils 2.3.x package on Linux systems allows a local user to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters. |
| userhelper in the usermode package on Red Hat Linux executes non-setuid programs as root, which does not activate the security measures in glibc and allows the programs to be exploited via format string vulnerabilities in glibc via the LANG or LC_ALL environment variables (CVE-2000-0844). |
| Buffer overflows in the (1) outpack or (2) buf variables of ping in iputils before 20001010, as distributed on Red Hat Linux 6.2 through 7J and other operating systems, may allow local users to gain privileges. |
