Ubuntu Security Notice 2260-1 - 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. Pinkie Pie discovered a flaw in the Linux kernel's futex subsystem. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or gain administrative privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
8193a7a1ebc21413d662ea710632ba74Mandriva 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.
d4173e7b22628d26c1c257c521cb1593Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0678-02 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating 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.
a7fbf9dc744e574d56de08750199a6cfRed Hat Security Advisory 2014-0557-01 - The kernel-rt packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A race condition leading to a use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's TCP/IP protocol suite implementation handled the addition of fragments to the LRU list under certain conditions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system by sending a large amount of specially crafted fragmented packets to that system.
92ffb61f18bc3e90b948a3bb43daf85eUbuntu 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.
60a61ce3b46f20c368154ead75b6bd25Tor-ramdisk is an i686 uClibc-based micro Linux distribution whose only purpose is to host a Tor server in an environment that maximizes security and privacy. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. Security is enhanced by employing a monolithically compiled GRSEC/PAX patched kernel and hardened system tools. Privacy is enhanced by turning off logging at all levels so that even the Tor operator only has access to minimal information. Finally, since everything runs in ephemeral memory, no information survives a reboot, except for the Tor configuration file and the private RSA key which may be exported/imported by FTP. x86_64 version.
530be58574231832910eb9aa19272f43Red 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.
