Insight
* Buffer overflow in eCryptfs. When /dev/ecryptfs has world writable permissions (which it does not, by default, on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6), a local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or possibly escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-2492, Important)
* Integer overflow in the RDS protocol implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-3865, Important)
* Missing boundary checks in the PPP over L2TP sockets implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-4160, Important)
* NULL pointer dereference in the igb driver. If both Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) and promiscuous mode were enabled on an interface using igb, it could result in a denial of service when a tagged VLAN packet is received on that interface. (CVE-2010-4263, Important)
* Missing initialization flaw in the XFS file system implementation, and in the network traffic policing implementation, could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause an information leak. (CVE-2010-3078, CVE-2010-3477, Moderate)
* NULL pointer dereference in the Open Sound System compatible sequencer driver could allow a local, unprivileged user with access to /dev/sequencer to cause a denial of service. /dev/sequencer is only accessible to root and users in the audio group by default. (CVE-2010-3080, Moderate)
* Flaw in the ethtool IOCTL handler could allow a local user to cause an information leak. (CVE-2010-3861, Moderate)
* Flaw in bcm_connect() in the Controller Area Network (CAN) Broadcast Manager. On 64-bit systems, writing the socket address may overflow the procname character array. (CVE-2010-3874, Moderate)
* Flaw in the module for monitoring the sockets of INET transport protocols could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2010-3880, Moderate)
* Missing boundary checks in the block layer implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4162, CVE-2010-4163, CVE-2010-4668, Moderate)
* NULL pointer dereference in the Bluetooth HCI UART driver could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4242, Moderate)
* Flaw in the Linux kernel CPU time clocks implementation for the POSIX clock interface could allow a local, unprivileged user to caus ...
