USN-1146-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Kees Cook discovered that some ethtool functions did not correctly clear heap memory. A local attacker with CAPNETADMIN privileges could exploit this to read portions of kernel heap memory, leading to a loss of privacy. CVE-2010-4655 Kees Cook discovered that the IOWarrior USB device driver did n...

kernel: panic in ib_cm:cm_work_handler

Race condition in the cmworkhandler function in the InfiniBand driver drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c in Linux kernel 2.6.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service panic by sending an InfiniBand request while other request handlers are still running, which triggers an invalid pointer...
