Debian Linux Security Advisory 2906-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, information leak or privilege escalation.
f613033ad285f2bace4384c533093667Red Hat Security Advisory 2013-1520-01 - Red Hat OpenStack 3.0 includes a custom Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4 kernel. These custom kernel packages include support for network namespaces; this support is required to facilitate advanced OpenStack Networking deployments. A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's TCP/IP protocol suite implementation handled IPv6 sockets that used the UDP_CORK option. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's device mapper subsystem, under certain conditions, interpreted data written to snapshot block devices. An attacker could use this flaw to read data from disk blocks in free space, which are normally inaccessible.
3c1cc82e14cf78f8008f59c252fe2f92Red Hat Security Advisory 2013-1436-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's TCP/IP protocol suite implementation handled IPv6 sockets that used the UDP_CORK option.

a5ce9a9aab5dc05ce655e71ccd4a651eRed Hat Security Advisory 2013-1292-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A use-after-free flaw was found in the madvise() system call implementation in the Linux kernel. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or, potentially, escalate their privileges.

431af5caa713d02a87c8868f96420d36Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-242 - Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Linux kernel. Multiple array index errors in drivers/hid/hid-core.c in the Human Interface Device subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11 allow physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a crafted device that provides an invalid Report ID. drivers/hid/hid-zpff.c in the Human Interface Device subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_ZEROPLUS is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted device. drivers/hid/hid-pl.c in the Human Interface Device subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_PANTHERLORD is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted device. Various other issues were also addressed. The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.
39a874396da5d8bde1097836cabd52b8Red Hat Security Advisory 2013-1264-01 - The kernel-rt packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iSCSI target subsystem. A remote attacker could use a specially-crafted iSCSI request to cause a denial of service on a system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on that system. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Performance Events implementation. On systems with certain Intel processors, a local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service by leveraging the perf subsystem to write into the reserved bits of the OFFCORE_RSP_0 and OFFCORE_RSP_1 model-specific registers.
5eea9d3ce982c34da176b92519e344f2Ubuntu Security Notice 1947-1 - A denial of service flaw was discovered in the Btrfs file system in the Linux kernel. A local user could cause a denial of service by creating a large number of files with names that have the same CRC32 hash value. A denial of service flaw was discovered in the Btrfs file system in the Linux kernel. A local user could cause a denial of service (prevent file creation) for a victim, by creating a file with a specific CRC32C hash value in a directory important to the victim. Various other issues were also addressed.
