CVE-2016-10208 [MEDIUM] Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Title: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Ralf Spenneberg discovered that the ext4 implementation in the Linux kernel
did not properly validate meta block groups. An attacker with physical
access could use this to specially craft an ext4 image that causes a denial
of service (system crash). (CVE-2016-10208)
It was discovered that an information disclosure vulnerability existed in
the ACPI implementation of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use
this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory addresses).
(CVE-2017-11472)
It was discovered that a buffer overflow existed in the ACPI table parsing
implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
construct a malicious ACPI table that, when loaded, cau

Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
It was discovered that an integer overflow existed in the perf subsystem of
the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of

Wei Fang discovered an integer overflow in the F2FS filesystem
implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2017-18257)

driver in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to expose
sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2018-1000204)

kernel: Undefined behaviour with INT_MIN argument in kernel/signal.c:kill_something_info() allows for denial of service
The kill_something_info function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service via an INT_MIN argument.
The Linux kernel has an undefined behavior when an argument of INT_MIN is passed to the kernel/signal.c:kill_something_info() function. A local attacker may be able to exploit this to cause a denial of service.
