The proc_oom_score function in fs/proc/base.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34-rc4 uses inappropriate data structures during selection of a candidate for the OOM killer, which might allow local users to cause a denial of service via unspecified patterns of task creation.

Unspecified vulnerability in HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM) 5.3, 5.3 Update 1, and 6.0 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information and modify data via unknown vectors.

The btrfs_ioctl_clone function in fs/btrfs/ioctl.c in the btrfs functionality in the Linux kernel 2.6.29 through 2.6.32, and possibly other versions, does not ensure that a cloned file descriptor has been opened for reading, which allows local users to read sensitive information from a write-only file descriptor.

kernel: GFS2: The setflags ioctl() doesn't check file ownership

The do_gfs2_set_flags function in fs/gfs2/file.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34-git10 does not verify the ownership of a file, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via a SETFLAGS ioctl request.

kernel: nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash

mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.28-rc3, when strict overcommit is enabled, does not properly handle the export of shmemfs objects by knfsd, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and knfsd crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.

Mathematica 7, when running on Linux, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) files within /tmp/MathLink/ or (2) /tmp/fonts$$.conf.

kernel: ext4: Make sure the MOVE_EXT ioctl can't overwrite append-only files

The mext_check_arguments function in fs/ext4/move_extent.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 allows local users to overwrite an append-only file via a MOVE_EXT ioctl call that specifies this file as a donor.

The btrfs_xattr_set_acl function in fs/btrfs/acl.c in btrfs in the Linux kernel 2.6.34 and earlier does not check file ownership before setting an ACL, which allows local users to bypass file permissions by setting arbitrary ACLs, as demonstrated using setfacl.

Adobe Flash Media Server (FMS) before 3.0.6, and 3.5.x before 3.5.4, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, related to a "JS method vulnerability."

Adobe Flash Media Server (FMS) before 3.0.6, and 3.5.x before 3.5.4, allows attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors, related to a "JS method issue."

Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Flash Media Server (FMS) before 3.0.6, and 3.5.x before 3.5.4, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via unknown vectors.

Adobe Flash Media Server (FMS) before 3.0.6, and 3.5.x before 3.5.4, allows attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors, related to an "input validation issue."

scsi-target-utils: stack buffer overflow vulnerability

Multiple buffer overflows in the iSNS implementation in isns.c in (1) Linux SCSI target framework (aka tgt or scsi-target-utils) before 1.0.6, (2) iSCSI Enterprise Target (aka iscsitarget or IET) 1.4.20.1 and earlier, and (3) Generic SCSI Target Subsystem for Linux (aka SCST or iscsi-scst) 1.0.1.1 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via (a) a long iSCSI Name string in an SCN message or (b) an invalid PDU.

kernel: xfs swapext ioctl minor security issue

The xfs_swapext function in fs/xfs/xfs_dfrag.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not properly check the file descriptors passed to the SWAPEXT ioctl, which allows local users to leverage write access and obtain read access by swapping one file into another file.

kernel: mm: keep a guard page below a grow-down stack segment

The do_anonymous_page function in mm/memory.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.27.52, 2.6.32.x before 2.6.32.19, 2.6.34.x before 2.6.34.4, and 2.6.35.x before 2.6.35.2 does not properly separate the stack and the heap, which allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code by writing to the bottom page of a shared memory segment, as demonstrated by a memory-exhaustion attack against the X.Org X server.

kernel: cifs: Fix a kernel BUG with remote OS/2 server

fs/cifs/cifssmb.c in the CIFS implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34-rc4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via an SMB response packet with an invalid CountHigh value, as demonstrated by a response from an OS/2 server, related to the CIFSSMBWrite and CIFSSMBWrite2 functions.

browser/renderer_host/database_dispatcher_host.cc in Google Chrome before 5.0.375.70 on Linux does not properly handle ViewHostMsg_DatabaseOpenFile messages in chroot-based sandboxing, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended sandbox restrictions via vectors involving fchdir and chdir calls.

kernel: ethtool: kernel buffer overflow in ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL

Integer overflow in the ethtool_get_rxnfc function in net/core/ethtool.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33.7 on 32-bit platforms allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via an ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL ethtool command with a large info.rule_cnt value that triggers a buffer overflow, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-3084.

kernel: ecryptfs_uid_hash() buffer overflow

Buffer overflow in the ecryptfs_uid_hash macro in fs/ecryptfs/messaging.c in the eCryptfs subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 might allow local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash) via unspecified vectors.

kernel: l2tp: Fix oops in pppol2tp_xmit

The pppol2tp_xmit function in drivers/net/pppol2tp.c in the L2TP implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34 does not properly validate certain values associated with an interface, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to a routing change.
