Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1959-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. It was found that the permission checks performed by the Linux kernel when a netlink message was received were not sufficient. A local, unprivileged user could potentially bypass these restrictions by passing a netlink socket as stdout or stderr to a more privileged process and altering the output of this process.
