A malicious CIFS server could send a specially-crafted response to a directory read request that would result in a denial of service or privilege escalation on a system that has a CIFS share mounted. The way fragmented IPv6 UDP datagrams over the bridge with UDP Fragmentation Offload functionality on were handled could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

IPv6 fragment identification value generation could allow a remote attacker to disrupt a target system's networking, preventing legitimate users from accessing its services. A signedness issue was found in the Linux kernel's CIFS implementation. A malicious CIFS server could send a specially-crafted response to a directory read request that would result in a denial of service or privilege escalation on a system that has a CIFS share mounted.

On some systems, a remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Vasiliy Kulikov and Dan Rosenberg discovered that ecryptfs did not correctly check the origin of mount points. A local attacker could exploit this to trick the system into unmounting arbitrary mount points, leading to a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.

A local attacker could exploit this to consume CPU resources, leading to a denial of service. Dan Rosenberg discovered that the Bluetooth stack incorrectly handled certain L2CAP requests. If a system was using Bluetooth, a remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic to crash the system or gain root privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
