Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2773-1
Posted Oct 20, 2015
Authored by Ubuntu | Site security.ubuntu.com

Ubuntu Security Notice 2773-1 - It was discovered that virtio networking in the Linux kernel did not handle fragments correctly, leading to kernel memory corruption. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute code with administrative privileges. It was discovered that the Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) implementation in the Linux kernel did not verify sockets were properly bound before attempting to send a message, which could cause a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). Various other issues were also addressed.
