Ubuntu Security Notice 2114-1 - Vasily Kulikov reported a flaw in the Linux kernel's implementation of ptrace. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory. A flaw in the handling of memory regions of the kernel virtual machine (KVM) subsystem was discovered. A local user with the ability to assign a device could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (memory consumption). Various other issues were also addressed.

An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory. Dave Jones and Vince Weaver reported a flaw in the Linux kernel's perf event subsystem that allows normal users to enable function tracing. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to obtain potentially sensitive information from the kernel. Various other issues were also addressed.

8c36dcc617fba5e580a95c0a946cd2ed38307f4107c63ecd9381c14a771a9437Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-291 - Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Linux kernel. The Linux kernel before 3.12.2 does not properly use the get_dumpable function, which allows local users to bypass intended ptrace restrictions or obtain sensitive information from IA64 scratch registers via a crafted application, related to kernel/ptrace.c and arch/ia64/include/asm/processor.h. The perf_trace_event_perm function in kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.2 does not properly restrict access to the perf subsystem, which allows local users to enable function tracing via a crafted application. Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to create a read-write memory mapping for the entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the au1100fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the au1200fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c. Various other issues have also been addressed.

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's IPv6 implementation handled certain UDP packets when the UDP Fragmentation Offload feature was enabled. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
