Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.23, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 47.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 47.0 and Firefox ESR 45.x before 45.2 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

In the marksourcechains function (net/ipv4/netfilter/iptables.c) it is possible for a user-supplied iptentry structure to have a large nextoffset field. This field is not bounds checked prior to writing a counter value at the supplied offset.

Adam Gowdiak (Security Explorations) reported that the fix for IBM JDK issue CVE-2013-5456 (bug 1027748), also known as "Issue 70", did not correctly address the problem. Applied fix only restricted access to the vulnerable package, rather then addressing the underlying problem of running untrusted code inside doPrivileged block.

A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation. Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86 machine can disable the ASLR by setting the RLIMITSTACK resource to unlimited.

A use after free vulnerability was found in pppunregisterchannel function. This is triggered when network namespace is removed while pppasync channel is still registered in it and pppunregisterchannel() tries to access its per-netns data in the defunct namespace.
An attacker who could control this memory that is being used in the defunct namespace could create a denial of service by spinlocking a CPU.
An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.

A flaw was discovered in processing setsockopt for 32 bit processes on 64 bit systems. This flaw will allow attackers to alter arbitary kernel memory when unloading a kernel module. This action is usually restricted to root-priveledged users but can also be leveraged if the kernel is compiled with CONFIGUSERNS and CONFIGNETNS and the user is granted elevated priveledges.
This flaw was introduced in commit 52e804c6dfaa,

Quickly plugging in and unplugging a USB hub can lead to a null pointer dereference in kernel (local denial of service) or the USB port to which the hub is connected becomes unusable, for kernel versions 2.6.32 < 4.4. The issue occurs when the USB hub gets disconnected before or while the routine for USB hub activation is running - hubactivate() function.

Use-after-free vulnerability in the SetBreaks function in Mozilla Firefox before 38.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.7, and Thunderbird before 31.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a document containing crafted text in conjunction with a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequence containing properties related to vertical text.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the SVGTextFrame class in Mozilla Firefox before 38.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.7, and Thunderbird before 31.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted SVG graphics data in conjunction with a crafted Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequence.
fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 does not limit the amount of unread data in pipes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by creating many pipes with non-default sizes.

A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel. There is an information leak in file "sound/core/timer.c" of the latest mainline Linux kernel, the stack object “tread” has a total size of 32 bytes. It contains a 8-bytes padding, which is not initialized but sent to user via copytouser(), resulting a kernel leak.
Destroy of network interface with huge number of ipv4 addresses keeps rtnllock for a very long time (up to hour). It blocks many network related operations, including for example creation of new incoming ssh connections.
The problem is especially important for containers, container owner have enough permission to enable this trigger and then can block network access on whole host node.

The tmreclaimthread function in arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1 on powerpc platforms does not ensure that TM suspend mode exists before proceeding with a tmreclaim call, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (TM Bad Thing exception and panic) via a crafted application.
