Categories: Elevation of privilege vulnerability in kernel file system
Details: Use-after-free vulnerability in the path_openat function in fs/namei.c in the Linux kernel 3.x and 4.x before 4.0.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via O_TMPFILE filesystem operations that leverage a duplicate cleanup operation. [NIST-CVE-2015-5706]
Categories: Elevation of privilege vulnerability in kernel file system
Details: The __ext4_journal_stop function in fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging improper access to a certain error field. [NIST-CVE-2015-8961]
Categories: Elevation of privilege vulnerability in kernel file system
Details: The kernel filesystem implementation in Android before 2016-07-05 on Nexus 5X, Nexus 6, Nexus 6P, Nexus Player, and Pixel C devices allows attackers to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka internal bug 28588279. [NIST-CVE-2016-3775]
Categories: Elevation of privilege vulnerability in kernel file system
Details: Race condition in the get_task_ioprio function in block/ioprio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted ioprio_get system call. [NIST-CVE-2016-7911]
Categories: Elevation of privilege vulnerability in kernel file system
Details: Use-after-free vulnerability in the disk_seqf_stop function in block/genhd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.7.1 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging the execution of a certain stop operation even if the corresponding start operation had failed. [NIST-CVE-2016-7910]
Categories: Elevation of privilege vulnerability in kernel file system
Details: An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the kernel file system could enable a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of the kernel. This issue is rated as Critical due to the possibility of a local permanent device compromise, which may require reflashing the operating system to repair the device. Product: Android. Versions: Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18. Android ID: A-31495866. [NIST-CVE-2017-0427]
