  This update fixes the following security issues:

  * a flaw was found in the Unidirectional Lightweight Encapsulation (ULE)
  implementation. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted ISO
  MPEG-2 Transport Stream (TS) frame to a target system, resulting in an
  infinite loop (denial of service). (CVE-2010-1086, Important)

  * on AMD64 systems, it was discovered that the kernel did not ensure the
  ELF interpreter was available before making a call to the SET_PERSONALITY
  macro. A local attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of service by
  running a 32-bit application that attempts to execute a 64-bit application.
  (CVE-2010-0307, Moderate)

  * a flaw was found in the kernel connector implementation. A local,
  unprivileged user could trigger this flaw by sending an arbitrary number
  of notification requests using specially-crafted netlink messages,
  resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2010-0410, Moderate)

  * a flaw was found in the Memory-mapped I/O (MMIO) instruction decoder in
  the Xen hypervisor implementation. An unprivileged guest user could use
  this flaw to trick the hypervisor into emulating a certain instruction,
  which could crash the guest (denial of service). (CVE-2010-0730, Moderate)

  * a divide-by-zero flaw was found in the azx_position_ok() function in the
  driver for Intel High Definition Audio, snd-hda-intel. A local,
  unprivileged user could trigger this flaw to cause a kernel crash (denial
  of service). (CVE-2010-1085, Moderate)

  This update also fixes the following bugs:

  * in some cases, booting a system with the 'iommu=on' kernel parameter
  resulted in a Xen hypervisor panic. (BZ#580199)

  * the fnic driver flushed the Rx queue instead of the Tx queue after
  fabric login. This caused crashes in some cases. (BZ#580829)

  * 'kernel unaligned access' warnings were logged to the dmesg log on some
  systems. (BZ#580832)

  * the 'Northbridge Error, node 1, core: -1 K8 ECC error' error occurred on
  some systems using the amd64_edac driver. (BZ#580836)

  * in rare circumstances, when using kdump and booting a kernel with
  'crashkernel=128M 16M', the kdump kernel did not boot after a crash.
  (BZ#580838)

  * TLB page table entry flushing was done incorrectly on IBM System z,
  possibly causing crashes, subtle data inconsistency, or other issues.
  (BZ#580839)

  * iSCSI failover times were slower than in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3.
  (BZ#580840)
