kernel: Unix sockets use after free - peer_wait_queue prematurely freed

Use-after-free vulnerability in net/unix/af_unix.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to bypass intended AF_UNIX socket permissions or cause a denial of service (panic) via crafted epoll_ctl calls.

postgresql: CREATE INDEX race condition possibly leading to privilege escalation

Race condition in the (1) CREATE INDEX and (2) unspecified ALTER TABLE commands in PostgreSQL before 8.4.20, 9.0.x before 9.0.16, 9.1.x before 9.1.12, 9.2.x before 9.2.7, and 9.3.x before 9.3.3 allows remote authenticated users to create an unauthorized index or read portions of unauthorized tables by creating or deleting a table with the same name during the timing window.

python: os.makedirs(exist_ok=True) is not thread-safe in Python 3.x

Race condition in the _get_masked_mode function in Lib/os.py in Python 3.2 through 3.5, when exist_ok is set to true and multiple threads are used, might allow local users to bypass intended file permissions by leveraging a separate application vulnerability before the umask has been set to the expected value.

kernel: ath9k: tid->sched race in ath_tx_aggr_sleep()

Race condition in the ath_tx_aggr_sleep function in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a large amount of network traffic that triggers certain list deletions.

Kernel: net: mac80211: crash dues to AP powersave TX vs. wakeup race

Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts with the WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to sta_info.c and tx.c.

A race condition in the wmi_malware_scan.nbin plugin before 201402262215 for Nessus 5.2.1 allows local users to gain privileges by replacing the dissolvable agent executable in the Windows temp directory with a Trojan horse program.

Race condition in iMessage in Apple iOS before 8 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information by leveraging the presence of an attachment after the deletion of its parent (1) iMessage or (2) MMS.

Race condition in NVMap in NVIDIA Tegra Linux Kernel 3.10 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted NVMAP_IOC_CREATE IOCTL call, which triggers a use-after-free error, as demonstrated by using a race condition to escape the Chrome sandbox.

kernel: xen: Race condition in HVMOP_track_dirty_vram (XSA-104)

Race condition in HVMOP_track_dirty_vram in Xen 4.0.0 through 4.4.x does not ensure possession of the guarding lock for dirty video RAM tracking, which allows certain local guest domains to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

Race condition in Puppet Server 0.2.0 allows local users to obtain sensitive information by accessing it in between package installation or upgrade and the start of the service.

Mozilla: Read of uninitialized memory in Web Audio (MFSA 2015-05)

The mozilla::dom::AudioParamTimeline::AudioNodeInputValue function in the Web Audio API implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 35.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.32 does not properly restrict timeline operations, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (uninitialized-memory read and application crash) via crafted API calls.

openstack-nova: Nova VMware driver may connect VNC to another tenant's console

Race condition in the VMware driver in OpenStack Compute (Nova) before 2014.1.4 and 2014.2 before 2014.2rc1 allows remote authenticated users to access unintended consoles by spawning an instance that triggers the same VNC port to be allocated to two different instances.

kernel: use-after-free during key garbage collection

Race condition in the key_gc_unused_keys function in security/keys/gc.c in the Linux kernel through 3.18.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via keyctl commands that trigger access to a key structure member during garbage collection of a key.

Kernel: fs: btrfs: non-atomic xattr replace operation

The Btrfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.19 does not ensure that the visible xattr state is consistent with a requested replacement, which allows local users to bypass intended ACL settings and gain privileges via standard filesystem operations (1) during an xattr-replacement time window, related to a race condition, or (2) after an xattr-replacement attempt that fails because the data does not fit.

chromium-browser: Memory corruption in FFMpeg

The update_dimensions function in libavcodec/vp8.c in FFmpeg through 2.8.1, as used in Google Chrome before 46.0.2490.71 and other products, relies on a coefficient-partition count during multi-threaded operation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (race condition and memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted WebM file.

chromium-browser: Use-after free in Blink

Race condition in the MutationObserver implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 47.0.2526.80, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging unanticipated object deletion.

kernel: fs/fhandle.c race condition

Race condition in the handle_to_path function in fs/fhandle.c in the Linux kernel through 3.19.1 allows local users to bypass intended size restrictions and trigger read operations on additional memory locations by changing the handle_bytes value of a file handle during the execution of this function.

Race condition in Lenovo System Update (formerly ThinkVantage System Update) before 5.06.0034 uses world-writable permissions for the update files directory, which allows local users to gain privileges by writing to an update file after the signature is validated.

Race condition in Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT) before 5.26 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted DLL, aka "MSRT Race Condition Vulnerability."

kernel: overlayfs: missing upper dentry verification before unlink and rename

fs/overlayfs/dir.c in the OverlayFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.6 does not properly verify the upper dentry before proceeding with unlink and rename system-call processing, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a rename system call that specifies a self-hardlink.
