Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2014-124 - Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Linux kernel. The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.
d4173e7b22628d26c1c257c521cb1593Ubuntu Security Notice 2227-1 - A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's pseudo tty (pty) device. An unprivileged user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or potentially gain administrator privileges. Matthew Daley reported an information leak in the floppy disk driver of the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory. Various other issues were also addressed.

An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory. Matthew Daley reported a flaw in the handling of ioctl commands by the floppy disk driver in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to gain administrative privileges if the floppy disk module is loaded. Various other issues were also addressed.

06317741fa5c1817e5ca52b6e78a1131Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0520-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel processed an authenticated COOKIE_ECHO chunk during the initialization of an SCTP connection. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system by initiating a specially crafted SCTP handshake in order to trigger a NULL pointer dereference on the system. A race condition flaw, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, was found in the way the Linux kernel's N_TTY line discipline implementation handled concurrent processing of echo output and TTY write operations originating from user space when the underlying TTY driver was PTY. An unprivileged, local user could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
64f860de6721312824d59e9d3758f50aUbuntu Security Notice 2174-1 - A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's handling of SCTP handshake. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash). An error was discovered in the Linux kernel's DCCP protocol support. A remote attacked could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
80f8bc531bef2080459442bca0d8970bUbuntu Security Notice 2173-1 - A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's handling of SCTP handshake. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash). An error was discovered in the Linux kernel's DCCP protocol support. A remote attacked could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
e8718796f666513ce97d84254d755347Debian 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.
