Details

Emese Revfy discovered that in the Linux kernel signal handlers could leak
address information across an exec, making it possible to bypass ASLR
(Address Space Layout Randomization). A local user could use this flaw to
bypass ASLR to reliably deliver an exploit payload that would otherwise be
stopped (by ASLR). (CVE-2013-0914)

A memory use after free error was discovered in the Linux kernel’s tmpfs
filesystem. A local user could exploit this flaw to gain privileges or
cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2013-1767)

Mateusz Guzik discovered a race in the Linux kernel’s keyring. A local user
could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash).
