race condition can wake up a PTRACED process
CVE: CVE-2007-4774
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-362
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 5.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
Release date: 2007-12-17T00:00:00+00:00

The Linux kernel before 2.4.36-rc1 has a race condition. It was possible to bypass systrace policies by flooding the ptraced process with SIGCONT signals, which can can wake up a PTRACED process.

Component: /proc/cpuinfo DoS on some ppc machines
Severity: Moderate
Release date: 2007-11-23T00:00:00+00:00

The chrp_show_cpuinfo function (chrp/setup.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.21 through 2.6.18-53, when running on PowerPC, might allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown vectors that cause the of_get_property function to fail, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

CVE: CVE-2007-2511
Component: php user_filter_factory_create overflow
Release date: 2007-05-03T00:00:00+00:00

Buffer overflow in the user_filter_factory_create function in PHP before 5.2.2 has unknown impact and local attack vectors.

Statement: The PHP interpreter does not offer a reliable "sandboxed" security layer (as found in, say, a JVM) in which untrusted scripts can be run any script run by the PHP interpreter must be trusted with the privileges of the interpreter itself. This bug described in CVE-2007-2511 can only be triggered by a script author since no trust boundary is crossed, this issue is not treated as security-sensitive.

CVE: CVE-2007-4996
Component: MSN nudges sent from unknown buddies can cause libpurple to crash
Release date: 2007-09-27T00:00:00+00:00

libpurple in Pidgin before 2.2.1 does not properly handle MSN nudge messages from users who are not on the receiver's buddy list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a nudge message that triggers an access of "an invalid memory location."

Statement: Not vulnerable. These issues did not affect the versions of Pidgin or Gaim as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, or 5.

Remediation:
Specially-crafted Gem archive can overwrite system files
CVE: CVE-2007-0469
Component: RubyGems
Severity: Low
Release date: 2007-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

The extract_files function in installer.rb in RubyGems before 0.9.1 does not check whether files exist before overwriting them, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files, cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code via crafted GEM packages.

Statement: Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having Low security impact. This issue is not currently planned to be addressed in future updates. For additional information, refer to the Issue Severity Classification: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/.

CVE: CVE-2007-6417
Component: tmpfs
Severity: Moderate
Release date: 2007-11-28T00:00:00+00:00

The shmem_getpage function (mm/shmem.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.11 through 2.6.23 does not properly clear allocated memory in some rare circumstances related to tmpfs, which might allow local users to read sensitive kernel data or cause a denial of service (crash).

Statement: This issue did not affect the versions of Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, and Red Hat Enterprise MRG.

Component: autofs default doesn't set nodev in /net
Severity: Important
Release date: 2007-12-20T00:00:00+00:00

The default configuration for autofs 5 (autofs5) in some Linux distributions, such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 4 and 5, does not specify the nodev mount option for the -hosts map, which allows local users to access "important devices" by operating a remote NFS server and creating special device files on that server, as demonstrated by the /dev/mem device.
