This update fixes the following security issues :

  - A flaw in the dccp_rcv_state_process() function could
    allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service,
    even when the socket was already closed. (CVE-2011-1093,
    Important)

  - Multiple buffer overflow flaws were found in the Linux
    kernel's Management Module Support for Message Passing
    Technology (MPT) based controllers. A local,
    unprivileged user could use these flaws to cause a
    denial of service, an information leak, or escalate
    their privileges. (CVE-2011-1494, CVE-2011-1495,
    Important)

  - A missing validation of a null-terminated string data
    structure element in the bnep_sock_ioctl() function
    could allow a local user to cause an information leak or
    a denial of service. (CVE-2011-1079, Moderate)

  - Missing error checking in the way page tables were
    handled in the Xen hypervisor implementation could allow
    a privileged guest user to cause the host, and the
    guests, to lock up. (CVE-2011-1166, Moderate)

  - A flaw was found in the way the Xen hypervisor
    implementation checked for the upper boundary when
    getting a new event channel port. A privileged guest
    user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or
    escalate their privileges. (CVE-2011-1763, Moderate)

  - The start_code and end_code values in '/proc/[pid]/stat'
    were not protected. In certain scenarios, this flaw
    could be used to defeat Address Space Layout
    Randomization (ASLR). (CVE-2011-0726, Low)

  - A missing initialization flaw in the
    sco_sock_getsockopt() function could allow a local,
    unprivileged user to cause an information leak.
    (CVE-2011-1078, Low)

  - A missing validation of a null-terminated string data
    structure element in the do_replace() function could
    allow a local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
    to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1080, Low)

  - A buffer overflow flaw in the DEC Alpha OSF partition
    implementation in the Linux kernel could allow a local
    attacker to cause an information leak by mounting a disk
    that contains specially crafted partition tables.
    (CVE-2011-1163, Low)

  - Missing validations of null-terminated string data
    structure elements in the do_replace(),
    compat_do_replace(), do_ipt_get_ctl(),
    do_ip6t_get_ctl(), and do_arpt_get_ctl() functions could
    allow a local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
    to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1170,
    CVE-2011-1171, CVE-2011-1172, Low)

  - A heap overflow flaw in the Linux kernel's EFI GUID
    Partition Table (GPT) implementation could allow a local
    attacker to cause a denial of service by mounting a disk
    that contains specially crafted partition tables.
    (CVE-2011-1577, Low)

This update also fixes several bugs.

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect."
