"An integer overflow was discovered in the stack randomization feature
of the Linux kernel on 64 bit platforms. A local attacker could
exploit this flaw to bypass the Address Space Layout Randomization
(ASLR) protection mechanism. (CVE-2015-1593)

An information leak was discovered in the Linux Kernel's handling of
userspace configuration of the link layer control (LLC). A local user
could exploit this flaw to read data from other sysctl settings.
(CVE-2015-2041)

An information leak was discovered in how the Linux kernel handles
setting the Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) settings. A local user
could exploit this flaw to read data from other sysctl settings.
(CVE-2015-2042).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
