tag_insight = "The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
This update fixes the following security issues:
* A flaw was found in the sctp_icmp_proto_unreachable() function in the
Linux kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation.
A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2010-4526, Important)
* A missing boundary check was found in the dvb_ca_ioctl() function in the
Linux kernel's av7110 module. On systems that use old DVB cards that
require the av7110 module, a local, unprivileged user could use this flaw
to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2011-0521,
Important)
* A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel's InfiniBand
implementation set up new connections. This could allow a remote user to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-0695, Important)
* A heap overflow flaw in the iowarrior_write() function could allow a
user with access to an IO-Warrior USB device, that supports more than 8
bytes per report, to cause a denial of service or escalate their
privileges. (CVE-2010-4656, Moderate)
* A flaw was found in the way the Linux Ethernet bridge implementation
handled certain IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) packets. A local,
unprivileged user on a system that has a network interface in an Ethernet
bridge could use this flaw to crash that system. (CVE-2011-0716, Moderate)
* A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Generic Receive Offload
(GRO) functionality in the Linux kernel's networking implementation. If
both GRO and promiscuous mode were enabled on an interface in a virtual LAN
(VLAN), it could result in a denial of service when a malformed VLAN frame
is received on that interface. (CVE-2011-1478, Moderate)
* A missing initialization flaw in the Linux kernel could lead to an
information leak. (CVE-2010-3296, Low)
* A missing security check in the Linux kernel's implementation of the
install_special_mapping() function could allow a local, unprivileged user
to bypass the mmap_min_addr protection mechanism. (CVE-2010-4346, Low)
* A logic error in the orinoco_ioctl_set_auth() function in the Linux
kernel's ORiNOCO wireless extensions support implementation could render
TKIP countermeasures ineffective when it is enabled, as it enabled the card
instead of shutting it down. (CVE-2010-4648, Low)
* A missing initialization flaw was found in th ...
