CVE-2017-6507

An issue was discovered in AppArmor before 2.12. Incorrect handling of unknown AppArmor profiles in AppArmor init scripts, upstart jobs, and/or systemd unit files allows an attacker to possibly have increased attack surfaces of processes that were intended to be confined by AppArmor. This is due ...

FreeBSD : xen-kernel -- x86: Mishandling of SYSCALL singlestep during emulation (942433db-c661-11e6-ae1b-002590263bf5)

The Xen Project reports : The typical behaviour of singlestepping exceptions is determined at the start of the instruction, with a DB trap being raised at the end of the instruction. SYSCALL and SYSRET, although we don't implement it behave differently because the typical behaviour allows userspa...
