USN-3001-1: Linux kernel (Vivid HWE) vulnerabilities Ubuntu Security Notice USN-3001-1 10th June, 2016 linux-lts-vivid vulnerabilities A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Summary Several security issues were fixed in the kernel. Software description linux-lts-vivid – Linux hardware enablement kernel from Vivid for Trusty Details Justin Yackoski discovered that the Atheros L2 Ethernet Driver in the Linuxkernel incorrectly enables scatter/gather I/O. A remote attacker could usethis to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory.(CVE-2016-2117) Jann Horn discovered that eCryptfs improperly attempted to use the mmap()handler of a lower filesystem that did not implement one, causing arecursive page fault to occur. A local unprivileged attacker could use tocause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary codewith administrative privileges. (CVE-2016-1583) Jason A. Donenfeld discovered multiple out-of-bounds reads in the OZMO USBover wifi device [ more… ]
