The udp_v6_get_port function in udp.c in Linux 2.6 before 2.6.14-rc5, when running IPv6, allows local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and crash).

The auto-reap of child processes in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.15 includes processes with ptrace attached, which leads to a dangling ptrace reference and allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and gain root privileges.

The ptrace functionality (ptrace.c) in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.14.2, using CLONE_THREAD, does not use the thread group ID to check whether it is attaching to itself, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash).

The IPv6 flow label handling code (ip6_flowlabel.c) in Linux kernels 2.4 up to 2.4.32 and 2.6 before 2.6.14 modifies the wrong variable in certain circumstances, which allows local users to corrupt kernel memory or cause a denial of service (crash) b

A locking problem in POSIX timer cleanup handling on exit in Linux kernel 2.6.10 to 2.6.14, when running on SMP systems, allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) involving process CPU timers.

Memory leak in the VFS file lease handling in locks.c in Linux kernels 2.6.10 to 2.6.15 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) via certain Samba activities that cause an fasync entry to be re-allocated by the fcntl_setlea

Race condition in do_coredump in signal.c in Linux kernel 2.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service by triggering a core dump in one thread while another thread has a pending SIGSTOP.

The NAT code (1) ip_nat_proto_tcp.c and (2) ip_nat_proto_udp.c in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.13 and 2.4 before 2.4.32-rc1 incorrectly declares a variable to be static, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by

Linux kernel 2.6.8 to 2.6.14-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel OOPS) via a userspace process that issues a USB Request Block (URB) to a USB device and terminates before the URB is finished, which leads to a stale pointer ref

Race condition in ebtables netfilter module (ebtables.c) in Linux 2.6, when running on an SMP system that is operating under a heavy load, might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a series of packets that cause a value to

Multiple vulnerabilities in Linux kernel before 2.6.13.2 allow local users to cause a denial of service (kernel OOPS from null dereference) via (1) fput in a 32-bit ioctl on 64-bit x86 systems or (2) sockfd_put in the 32-bit routing_ioctl function on

The Orinoco driver (orinoco.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.13 and earlier does not properly clear memory from a previously used packet whose length is increased, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

The ipt_recent kernel module (ipt_recent.c) in Linux kernel before 2.6.12, when running on 64-bit processors such as AMD64, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via certain attacks such as SSH brute force, which leads t

Memory leak in the seq_file implementation in the SCSI procfs interface (sg.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.13 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain repeated reads from the /proc/scsi/sg/devices file, whi

The raw_sendmsg function in the Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.13.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (change hardware state) or read from arbitrary memory via crafted input.

inflate.c in the zlib routines in the Linux kernel before 2.6.12.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a compressed file with "improper tables".

The huft_build function in inflate.c in the zlib routines in the Linux kernel before 2.6.12.5 returns the wrong value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a certain compressed file that leads to a null pointe

The driver for compressed ISO file systems (zisofs) in the Linux kernel before 2.6.12.5 allows local users and remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a crafted compressed ISO file system.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the sendmsg function call in the Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.13.1 allows local users to execute arbitrary code by calling sendmsg and modifying the message contents in another thread.

The fib_seq_start function in fib_hash.c in Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via /proc/net/route.
