Ubuntu 12.04 LTS : linux vulnerabilities (USN-2443-1)
An information leak in the Linux kernel was discovered that could leak the high 16 bits of the kernel stack address on 32-bit Kernel Virtual Machine KVM paravirt guests. A user in the guest OS could exploit this leak to obtain information that could potentially be used to aid in attacking the...
USN-2447-1 linux-lts-utopic vulnerabilities
Andy Lutomirski discovered that the Linux kernel does not properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment SS register in the x86 architecture. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to gain administrative privileges. CVE-2014-9322 An information leak in the Linux kernel was discovered...
USN-2444-1: Linux kernel (OMAP4) vulnerabilities
Rabin Vincent, Robert Swiecki, Russell King discovered that the ftrace subsystem of the Linux kernel does not properly handle private syscall numbers. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service OOPS. CVE-2014-7826 Rabin Vincent, Robert Swiecki, Russell Kinglaw discovered a...
