Ubuntu Security Notice 1507-1 - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine) virtual cpu setup. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to crash the system leading to a denial of service. An error was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 netfilter when connection tracking is enabled. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to crash a system if it is using IPv6 with the nf_contrack_ipv6 kernel module loaded. Various other issues were also addressed.

An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to crash the system leading to a denial of service. Steve Grubb reported a flaw with Linux fscaps (file system base capabilities) when used to increase the permissions of a process. For application on which fscaps are in use a local attacker can disable address space randomization to make attacking the process with raised privileges easier. Various other issues were also addressed.

KVM is a Linux kernel module built for the standard Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel. A flaw was found in the way the KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP ioctl was handled. Calling this ioctl when at least one virtual CPU already existed could lead to a NULL pointer dereference later when the VCPU is scheduled to run. A malicious user in the kvm group on the host could use this flaw to crash the host. A flaw was found in the way device memory was handled during guest device removal. Upon successful device removal, memory used by the device was not properly unmapped from the corresponding IOMMU or properly released from the kernel, leading to a memory leak. A malicious user in the kvm group on the host who has the ability to assign a device to a guest could use this flaw to crash the host.
