  operating system.

  This update fixes the following security issues:
  
  * A flaw was found in sctp_packet_config() 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-2010-3432,
  Important)
  
  * A missing integer overflow check was found in snd_ctl_new() in the Linux
  kernel's sound subsystem. A local, unprivileged user on a 32-bit system
  could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or escalate their
  privileges. (CVE-2010-3442, Important)
  
  * A heap overflow flaw in the Linux kernel's Transparent Inter-Process
  Communication protocol (TIPC) implementation could allow a local,
  unprivileged user to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-3859, Important)
  
  * An integer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Reliable
  Datagram Sockets (RDS) protocol implementation. A local, unprivileged user
  could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or escalate their
  privileges. (CVE-2010-3865, Important)
  
  * A flaw was found in the Xenbus code for the unified block-device I/O
  interface back end. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to cause a
  denial of service on the host system running the Xen hypervisor.
  (CVE-2010-3699, Moderate)
  
  * Missing sanity checks were found in setup_arg_pages() in the Linux
  kernel. When making the size of the argument and environment area on the
  stack very large, it could trigger a BUG_ON(), resulting in a local denial
  of service. (CVE-2010-3858, Moderate)
  
  * A flaw was found in inet_csk_diag_dump() in the Linux kernel's module for
  monitoring the sockets of INET transport protocols. By sending a netlink
  message with certain bytecode, a local, unprivileged user could cause a
  denial of service. (CVE-2010-3880, Moderate)
  
  * Missing sanity checks were found in gdth_ioctl_alloc() in the gdth driver
  in the Linux kernel. A local user with access to "/dev/gdth" on a 64-bit
  system could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or escalate their
  privileges. (CVE-2010-4157, Moderate)
  
  * The fix for Red Hat Bugzilla bug 484590 as provided in RHSA-2009:1243
  introduced a regression. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to
  cause a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4161, Moderate)
  
  * A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Bluetooth HCI UART
  driver in the Linux kernel. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw
  to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4242, Moderate)
  
  * It was found that a malic ...
