Linux kernel for Ubuntu 17.04. This update provides the corresponding updates
for the Linux Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel from Ubuntu 17.04 for Ubuntu
16.04 LTS. It was discovered that the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel did not
properly bound guest IRQs. A local attacker in a guest VM could use this to
cause a denial of service (host system crash). (CVE-2017-1000252) It was
discovered that the Flash-Friendly File System (f2fs) implementation in the
Linux kernel did not properly validate superblock metadata. A local attacker
could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-10663) Anthony Perard discovered that the Xen virtual
block driver did not properly initialize some data structures before passing
them to user space. A local attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose
sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs. (CVE-2017-10911) It
was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the POSIX message
queue implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2017-11176) Dave Chinner discovered that the XFS filesystem did not enforce
that the realtime inode flag was settable only on filesystems on a realtime
device. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system
crash). (CVE-2017-14340)");
