kernel: net: slab corruption due to improper synchronization around inet->opt

Race condition in the IP implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.0 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (slab corruption and system crash) by sending packets to an application that sets socket options during the handling of network traffic.

Race condition in the thread-creation implementation in win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows XP SP3 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka "Win32k.sys Race Condition Vulnerability."

kernel: mm: read_pmd_atomic: 32bit PAE pmd walk vs pmd_populate SMP race condition

The Linux kernel before 3.4.5 on the x86 platform, when Physical Address Extension (PAE) is enabled, does not properly use the Page Middle Directory (PMD), which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a crafted application that triggers a race condition.

Race condition in Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving improper interaction between worker processes and an XMLHttpRequest (aka XHR) object.

automake: locally exploitable "make distcheck" bug

The "make distcheck" rule in GNU Automake before 1.11.6 and 1.12.x before 1.12.2 grants world-writable permissions to the extraction directory, which introduces a race condition that allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Race condition in Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to the plug-in paint buffer.

kernel: possible kernel oops from user MSS

The do_tcp_setsockopt function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 does not properly restrict TCP_MAXSEG (aka MSS) values, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a setsockopt call that specifies a small value, leading to a divide-by-zero error or incorrect use of a signed integer.

kernel: posix-cpu-timers: workaround to suppress the problems with mt exec

Race condition in the __exit_signal function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service via vectors related to multithreaded exec, the use of a thread group leader in kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c, and the selection of a new thread group leader in the de_thread function in fs/exec.c.

Race condition in the mounting process in vmware-mount in VMware Workstation 7.x before 7.1.2 build 301548 on Linux, VMware Player 3.1.x before 3.1.2 build 301548 on Linux, VMware Server 2.0.2 on Linux, and VMware Fusion 3.1.x before 3.1.2 build 332101 allows host OS users to gain privileges via vectors involving temporary files.

Race condition in the Kernel::System::Main::FileWrite method in Open Ticket Request System (OTRS) before 2.4.8 allows remote authenticated users to corrupt the TicketCounter.log data in opportunistic circumstances by creating tickets.

spice activex/spicec named pipe races

Race condition in the SPICE (aka spice-activex) plug-in for Internet Explorer in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) Manager before 2.2.4 allows local users to create a certain named pipe, and consequently gain privileges, via vectors involving knowledge of the name of this named pipe, in conjunction with use of the ImpersonateNamedPipeClient function.

Race condition in IBM Web Content Manager (WCM) 7.0.0.1 before CF003 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (infinite recursive query) via unspecified vectors, related to a StackOverflowError exception.

spice-xpi/qspice-client unix socket race

Race condition in the SPICE (aka spice-xpi) plug-in 2.2 for Firefox allows local users to obtain sensitive information, and conduct man-in-the-middle attacks, by providing a UNIX socket for communication between this plug-in and the client (aka qspice-client) in qspice 0.3.0, and then accessing this socket.

kernel: panic in ib_cm:cm_work_handler

Race condition in the cm_work_handler function in the InfiniBand driver (drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) by sending an InfiniBand request while other request handlers are still running, which triggers an invalid pointer dereference.

php: race condition when handling many concurrent signals may lead to memory corruption

Race condition in the PCNTL extension in PHP before 5.3.4, when a user-defined signal handler exists, might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a large number of concurrent signals.

Race condition in Google Chrome before 9.0.597.84 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors related to audio.

Race condition in the sandbox launcher implementation in Google Chrome before 11.0.696.57 on Linux allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.

polkit: polkitd/pkexec vulnerability

Race condition in the pkexec utility and polkitd daemon in PolicyKit (aka polkit) 0.96 allows local users to gain privileges by executing a setuid program from pkexec, related to the use of the effective user ID instead of the real user ID.

rpmdevtools: TOCTOU race condition in annotate-output

scripts/annotate-output.sh in devscripts before 2.12.2, as used in rpmdevtools before 8.3, allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the temporary (1) standard output or (2) standard error output file.

Cisco IOS 12.2, 12.3, 12.4, 15.0, and 15.1, when the data-link switching (DLSw) feature is configured, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device crash) by sending a sequence of malformed packets and leveraging a "narrow timing window," aka Bug ID CSCtf74999, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-0199, CVE-2008-1152, and CVE-2009-0629.
