-Description: 
- The minix filesystem code in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.18, and possibly
- other versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via a
- malformed minix file stream that triggers an infinite loop in the minix_bmap
- function. NOTE: this issue might be due to an integer overflow or signedness
- error.
-Ubuntu-Description: 
- The minix filesystem did not properly validate certain filesystem values.
- If a local attacker could trick the system into attempting to mount a
- corrupted minix filesystem, the kernel could be made to hang for long
- periods of time, resulting in a denial of service.
-Notes: 
- dannf> ignored for sarge for now - only applies under very rare circumstances
-        and don't know if there's an upstream fix
- jmm> We can ignore this, it has no practical ramifications
- dannf> Though I agree its minor, I suspect its not so rare that admins
-        set user-mountable media's filesystem type to 'auto' in fstab,
-        allowing them to use any fs on the system. I could see this being
-        used to annoy sysadmins, e.g., in a university lab setting

-Description: 
- The NFS client implementation in the kernel in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
- 3, when a filesystem is mounted with the noacl option, checks permissions for
- the open system call via vfs_permission (mode bits) data rather than an NFS
- ACCESS call to the server, which allows local client processes to obtain a
- false success status from open calls that the server would deny, and possibly
- obtain sensitive information about file permissions on the server, as
- demonstrated in a root_squash environment. NOTE: it is uncertain whether any
- scenarios involving this issue cross privilege boundaries.

-Description: 
- Linux kernel 2.4.35 and other versions allows local users to send
- arbitrary signals to a child process that is running at higher privileges
- by causing a setuid-root parent process to die, which delivers an
- attacker-controlled parent process death signal (PR_SET_PDEATHSIG).
-Ubuntu-Description: 
- It was discovered that certain setuid-root processes did not correctly
- reset process death signal handlers.  A local user could manipulate this
- to send signals to processes they would not normally have access to.

-Description: 
- The (1) hugetlb_vmtruncate_list and (2) hugetlb_vmtruncate functions
- in fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19-rc4 perform
- certain prio_tree calculations using HPAGE_SIZE instead of PAGE_SIZE
- units, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic)
- via unspecified vectors.
-Ubuntu-Description: 
- Certain calculations in the hugetlb code were not correct.  A local
- attacker could exploit this to cause a kernel panic, leading to a denial
- of service.

-Description: 
- The snd_mem_proc_read function in sound/core/memalloc.c in the Advanced Linux
- Sound Architecture (ALSA) in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22.8 does not return
- the correct write size, which allows local users to obtain sensitive
- information (kernel memory contents) via a small count argument, as
- demonstrated by multiple reads of /proc/driver/snd-page-alloc. 
-Ubuntu-Description: 
- It was discovered that the ALSA /proc interface did not write the
- correct number of bytes when reporting memory allocations.  A local
- attacker might be able to access sensitive kernel memory, leading to
- a loss of privacy.

-Description: 
- The disconnect method in the Philips USB Webcam (pwc) driver in Linux kernel
- 2.6.x before 2.6.22.6 "relies on user space to close the device," which
- allows user-assisted local attackers to cause a denial of service (USB
- subsystem hang and CPU consumption in khubd) by not closing the device after
- the disconnect is invoked. NOTE: this rarely crosses privilege boundaries,
- unless the attacker can convince the victim to unplug the affected device.
-Ubuntu-Description: 
- The Philips USB Webcam driver did not correctly handle disconnects.
- If a local attacker tricked another user into disconnecting a webcam
- unsafely, the kernel could hang or consume CPU resources, leading to
- a denial of service.

-Ubuntu-Description: 
- A race condition was discovered between dnotify fcntl() and close() in
- the kernel.  If a local attacker performed malicious dnotify requests,
- they could cause memory consumption leading to a denial of service,
- or possibly send arbitrary signals to any process.

+Description: 
+ The minix filesystem code in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.18, and possibly
+ other versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via a
+ malformed minix file stream that triggers an infinite loop in the minix_bmap
+ function. NOTE: this issue might be due to an integer overflow or signedness
+ error.
+Ubuntu-Description: 
+ The minix filesystem did not properly validate certain filesystem values.
+ If a local attacker could trick the system into attempting to mount a
+ corrupted minix filesystem, the kernel could be made to hang for long
+ periods of time, resulting in a denial of service.
+Notes: 
+ dannf> ignored for sarge for now - only applies under very rare circumstances
+        and don't know if there's an upstream fix
+ jmm> We can ignore this, it has no practical ramifications
+ dannf> Though I agree its minor, I suspect its not so rare that admins
+        set user-mountable media's filesystem type to 'auto' in fstab,
+        allowing them to use any fs on the system. I could see this being
+        used to annoy sysadmins, e.g., in a university lab setting

+Description: 
+ Linux kernel 2.4.35 and other versions allows local users to send
+ arbitrary signals to a child process that is running at higher privileges
+ by causing a setuid-root parent process to die, which delivers an
+ attacker-controlled parent process death signal (PR_SET_PDEATHSIG).
+Ubuntu-Description: 
+ It was discovered that certain setuid-root processes did not correctly
+ reset process death signal handlers.  A local user could manipulate this
+ to send signals to processes they would not normally have access to.

+Description: 
+ The disconnect method in the Philips USB Webcam (pwc) driver in Linux kernel
+ 2.6.x before 2.6.22.6 "relies on user space to close the device," which
+ allows user-assisted local attackers to cause a denial of service (USB
+ subsystem hang and CPU consumption in khubd) by not closing the device after
+ the disconnect is invoked. NOTE: this rarely crosses privilege boundaries,
+ unless the attacker can convince the victim to unplug the affected device.
+Ubuntu-Description: 
+ The Philips USB Webcam driver did not correctly handle disconnects.
+ If a local attacker tricked another user into disconnecting a webcam
+ unsafely, the kernel could hang or consume CPU resources, leading to
+ a denial of service.
