Advised fix is upgrading to a kernel wi...

CVE-2012-6536

CVE-2012-6536 affects the Linux kernel (up to version 3.6) in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c. The vulnerability stems from not verifying that the Netlink message length matches a header field, enabling local users with CAP_NET_ADMIN to read sensitive kernel heap memory by supplying a (1) new or (2) updated...

CVE-2012-6538

The copytouserauth function in net/xfrm/xfrmuser.c in the Linux kernel before 3.6 uses an incorrect C library function for copying a string, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by leveraging the CAPNETADMIN capability...

CVE-2012-6540

The doipvsgetctl function in net/netfilter/ipvs/ipvsctl.c in the Linux kernel before 3.6 does not initialize a certain structure for IPVSSOGETTIMEOUT commands, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application...

CVE-2012-6542

The CVE-2012-6542 issue affects the Linux kernel prior to 3.6. It involves the function llc_ui_getname in net/llc/af_llc.c returning an incorrect value under certain circumstances, enabling local users to read sensitive data from kernel stack memory via an application that uses an uninitialized p...

CVE-2012-6544

CVE-2012-6544 affects the Linux kernel Bluetooth stack prior to 3.6. The issue arises from improper initialization of certain structures in the L2CAP/HCI paths, enabling a local attacker to read sensitive data from kernel stack memory via a crafted application. MiracleLinux AXSA-2014-258 (kernel-...

CVE-2012-6543

The l2tpip6getname function in net/l2tp/l2tpip6.c in the Linux kernel before 3.6 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application...
