VMware Security Advisory 2012-0013 - VMware has updated several third party libraries in vSphere and vcOps to address multiple security vulnerabilities.
ab37b6926b046653acdeeef66e7c85baUbuntu Security Notice 1286-1 - Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Robert Swiecki discovered that mapping extensions were incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. It was discovered that the wireless stack incorrectly verified SSID lengths. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or gain root privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
181615408671a2238103499da1dc4198Ubuntu Security Notice 1281-1 - Andrea Righi discovered a race condition in the KSM memory merging support. If KSM was being used, a local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. It was discovered that an mmap() call with the MAP_PRIVATE flag on "/dev/zero" was incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
aecce7ab016e9e29fd83a81e5038ab8dUbuntu Security Notice 1280-1 - It was discovered that CIFS incorrectly handled authentication. When a user had a CIFS share mounted that required authentication, a local user could mount the same share without knowing the correct password. Robert Swiecki discovered that mapping extensions were incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service.
c15e67e03625b2dbaf511cb80c1d169eUbuntu Security Notice 1278-1 - It was discovered that CIFS incorrectly handled authentication. When a user had a CIFS share mounted that required authentication, a local user could mount the same share without knowing the correct password. Andrea Righi discovered a race condition in the KSM memory merging support. If KSM was being used, a local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
7b0e3a87a8ff04a70dd2b49f153c0e5cUbuntu Security Notice 1269-1 - Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Robert Swiecki discovered that mapping extensions were incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. It was discovered that the wireless stack incorrectly verified SSID lengths. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or gain root privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
1672934ba43067cd176b264118166431Ubuntu Security Notice 1274-1 - Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Robert Swiecki discovered that mapping extensions were incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. It was discovered that the wireless stack incorrectly verified SSID lengths. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or gain root privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
8b2099a6839864a685ebcf30f2a8e06fUbuntu Security Notice 1272-1 - It was discovered that CIFS incorrectly handled authentication. When a user had a CIFS share mounted that required authentication, a local user could mount the same share without knowing the correct password. Andrea Righi discovered a race condition in the KSM memory merging support. If KSM was being used, a local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
c2b4be0547b37342a1395a83ffc9187bUbuntu Security Notice 1241-1 - It was discovered that the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation incorrectly calculated lengths. If the net.sctp.addip_enable variable was turned on, a remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic to crash the system. Ryan Sweat discovered that the kernel incorrectly handled certain VLAN packets. On some systems, a remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
447c461aca2cec9be3fb95e5c596cd81Red Hat Security Advisory 2011-1386-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. The maximum file offset handling for ext4 file systems could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. IPv6 fragment identification value generation could allow a remote attacker to disrupt a target system's networking, preventing legitimate users from accessing its services. Various other issues in the kernel have also been addressed.
501de34ecdb0786ceee3492c07b05128Red Hat Security Advisory 2011-1350-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Flaws in the AGPGART driver implementation when handling certain IOCTL commands could allow a local user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. An integer overflow flaw in agp_allocate_memory() could allow a local user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges.
79a99725db7b874bbfbfc554b61f3e78Debian Linux Security Advisory 2310-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leak.
65d8d1aa0819020e5a4ce26c40213ab3Debian Linux Security Advisory 2303-2 - The linux-2.6 and user-mode-linux upgrades from DSA-2303-1 has caused a regression that can result in an oops during invalid accesses to /proc/<pid>/maps files.
9318148db756c5f402f4dfdd1f2988eaDebian Linux Security Advisory 2303-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service or privilege escalation.
