linux-2.6 - security update

Description

This update fixes the CVEs described below. * [CVE-2015-7566](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-7566) Ralf Spenneberg of OpenSource Security reported that the visor driver crashes when a specially crafted USB device without bulk-out endpoint is detected. * [CVE-2015-8767](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-8767) An SCTP denial-of-service was discovered which can be triggered by a local attacker during a heartbeat timeout event after the 4-way handshake. * [CVE-2015-8785](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-8785) It was discovered that local users permitted to write to a file on a FUSE filesystem could cause a denial of service (unkillable loop in the kernel). * [CVE-2016-0723](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-0723) A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the TIOCGETD ioctl. A local attacker could use this flaw for denial-of-service. * [CVE-2016-2069](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-2069) Andy Lutomirski discovered a race condition in flushing of the TLB when switching tasks. On an SMP system this could possibly lead to a crash, information leak or privilege escalation. For the oldoldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 2.6.32-48squeeze19. Additionally, this version includes upstream stable update 2.6.32.70. This is the final update to the linux-2.6 package for squeeze. For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems will be fixed soon. For the stable distribution (jessie), [CVE-2015-7566](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-7566), [CVE-2015-8767](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-8767) and [CVE-2016-0723](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-0723) were fixed in linux version 3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u3 and the remaining problems will be fixed soon.
