Scientific Linux Security Update : kernel on SL5.x i386/x86_64

This update fixes the following security issues : - a logic error was found in the dosetlk function of the Linux kernel Network File System NFS implementation. If a signal interrupted a lock request, the local POSIX lock was incorrectly created. This could cause a denial of service on the NFS...

Scientific Linux Security Update : kernel on SL5.x, SL4.x, SL3.x i386/x86_64

A flaw was found in the IA32 system call emulation provided on AMD64 and Intel 64 platforms. An improperly validated 64-bit value could be stored in the %RAX register, which could trigger an out-of-bounds system call table access. An untrusted local user could exploit this flaw to run code in the...

FreeBSD : FreeBSD -- Privilege escalation when returning from kernel (aed44c4e-c067-11e1-b5e0-000c299b62e1)

Problem description : FreeBSD/amd64 runs on CPUs from different vendors. Due to varying behaviour of CPUs in 64 bit mode a sanity check of the kernel may be insufficient when returning from a system call. Successful exploitation of the problem can lead to local kernel privilege escalation, kernel...
