CVE-2015-8104 – virt: guest to host DoS by triggering an infinite loop in microcode via #DB exception
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2015-8104
The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS panic or hang) by triggering many #DB (aka Debug) exceptions, related to svm.c. El subsistema KVM en el kernel Linux hasta la versión 4.2.6, y Xen 4.3.x hasta la versión 4.6.x permite a usuarios del SO invitados causar una denegación de servicio (panic en el host del SO o cuelgue) desencadenando muchas excepciones #DB (también conocidas como Debug), relacionadas con svm.c. It was found that the x86 ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) is prone to a denial of service attack inside a virtualized environment in the form of an infinite loop in the microcode due to the way (sequential) delivering of benign exceptions such as #DB (debug exception) is handled. A privileged user inside a guest could use this flaw to create denial of service conditions on the host kernel. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=cbdb967af3d54993f5814f1cee0ed311a055377d http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2015-November/172187.html http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2015-November/172300.html http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2015-November/172435.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-11/msg00035.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-12/msg00005.html http:/ • CWE-399: Resource Management Errors CWE-835: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop') •
CVE-2015-7872 – kernel: Keyrings crash triggerable by unprivileged user
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2015-7872
The key_gc_unused_keys function in security/keys/gc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via crafted keyctl commands. La función key_gc_unused_keys en security/keys/gc.c en el kernel Linux hasta la versión 4.2.6 permite a usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (OOPS) a través de comandos keyctl manipulados. It was found that the Linux kernel's keys subsystem did not correctly garbage collect uninstantiated keyrings. A local attacker could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ce1fad2740c648a4340f6f6c391a8a83769d2e8c http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=f05819df10d7b09f6d1eb6f8534a8f68e5a4fe61 http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-11/msg00035.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-12/msg00005.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-12/msg00018.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-12/msg00026 • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation CWE-456: Missing Initialization of a Variable •
CVE-2015-7990
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2015-7990
Race condition in the rds_sendmsg function in net/rds/sendmsg.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not properly bound. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-6937. Condición de carrera en la función rds_sendmsg en net/rds/sendmsg.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.3.3 permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero NULL y caída del sistema) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado mediante el uso de un socket que no estaba vinculado adecuadamente.

The slhc_init function in drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.3 does not ensure that certain slot numbers are valid, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call.
