UBUNTU-CVE-2006-5331
The altivecunavailableexception function in arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19 on 64-bit systems mishandles the case where CONFIGALTIVEC is defined and the CPU actually supports Altivec, but the Altivec support was not detected by the kernel, which allows local users to...
CVE-2006-5331
CVE-2006-5331 affects the Linux kernel on 64-bit PowerPC systems. The altivec_unavailable_exception function mishandles the path where CONFIG_ALTIVEC is defined and the CPU supports Altivec, but Altivec support was not detected by the kernel, enabling a local user to trigger an Altivec instructio...

UBUNTU-CVE-2017-1000255
On Linux running on PowerPC hardware Power8 or later a user process can craft a signal frame and then do a sigreturn so that the kernel will take an exception interrupt, and use the r1 value from the signal frame as the kernel stack pointer. As part of the exception entry the content of the signa...
