The vdso_addr function in arch/x86/vdso/vma.c in the Linux kernel through 3.18.2 does not properly choose memory locations for the vDSO area, which makes it easier for local users to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism by guessing a location at the end of a PMD.

The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18.2 does not validate a length value in the Extensions Reference (ER) System Use Field, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted iso9660 image.

arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.17.2 on Intel processors does not ensure that the value in the CR4 control register remains the same after a VM entry, which allows host OS users to kill arbitrary processes or cause a denial of service (system disruption) by leveraging /dev/kvm access, as demonstrated by PR_SET_TSC prctl calls within a modified copy of QEMU.

The d_walk function in fs/dcache.c in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 does not properly maintain the semantics of rename_lock, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock and system hang) via a crafted application.

The sctp_assoc_lookup_asconf_ack function in net/sctp/associola.c in the SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via duplicate ASCONF chunks that trigger an incorrect uncork within the side-effect interpreter.

The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malformed ASCONF chunk, related to net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c and net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.38 and earlier and 5.6.19 and earlier allows local users to affect confidentiality via vectors related to CLIENT:MYSQLADMIN.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.39 and earlier, and 5.6.20 and earlier, allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality via vectors related to C API SSL CERTIFICATE HANDLING.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.39 and earlier, and 5.6.20 and earlier, allows remote attackers to affect availability via vectors related to CLIENT:SSL:yaSSL, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-6494.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.39 and earlier, and 5.6.20 and earlier, allows remote attackers to affect availability via vectors related to CLIENT:SSL:yaSSL, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-6496.
