Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-3099-1) The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux' package(s) announced via the USN-3099-1 advisory. Vladimir Benes discovered an unbounded recursion in the VLAN and TEB Generic Receive Offload (GRO) processing implementations in the Linux kernel, Marco Grassi discovered a use-after-free condition in the TCP retransmit queue handling code in the Linux kernel, Pengfei Wang discovered a race condition in the s390 SCLP console driver for the Linux kernel, Pengfei Wang discovered a race condition in the Adaptec AAC RAID controller driver in the Linux kernel when handling ioctl()s
