| Beschreibung: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
Saran Neti reported a flaw in the ipv6 UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFI) in
the Linux kernel. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a
denial of service (panic). (CVE-2013-4563)
Mathy Vanhoef discovered an error in the way the ath9k driver was
handling the BSSID masking. A remote attacker could exploit this error to
discover the original MAC address after a spoofing attack. (CVE-2013-4579)
Andrew Honig reported a flaw in the Linux Kernel's kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu
function of the Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM) subsystem. A local user could
exploit this flaw to gain privileges on the host machine. (CVE-2013-4587)
Andrew Honig reported a flaw in the apic_get_tmcct function of the Kernel
Virtual Machine (KVM) subsystem if the Linux kernel. A guest OS user could
exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service or host OS system crash.
(CVE-2013-6367)
Andrew Honig reported an error in the Linux Kernel's Kernel Virtual Machine
(KVM) VAPIC synchronization operation. A local user could exploit this flaw
to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2013-6368)
Lars Bull discovered a flaw in the recalculate_apic_map function of the
Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM) subsystem in the Linux kernel. A guest OS user
could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (host OS crash).
(CVE-2013-6376)
Nico Golde and Fabian Yamaguchi reported buffer underflow errors in the
implementation of the XFS filesystem in the Linux kernel. A local user with
CAP_SYS_ADMIN could exploit these flaw to cause a denial of service (memory
corruption) or possibly other unspecified issues. (CVE-2013-6382)
A flaw was discovered in the ipv4 ping_recvmsg function of the Linux
kernel. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service
(NULL pointer dereference and system crash). (CVE-2013-6432)
mpd reported an information leak in the recvfrom, recvmmsg, and recvmsg
system calls in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could exploit
this flaw to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory.
(CVE-2013-7263)
mpb reported an information leak in the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (l2tp)
of the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit this flaw to obtain
sensitive information from kernel stack memory. (CVE-2013-7264)
mpb reported an information leak in the Phone Network protocol (phonet) in
the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit this flaw to obtain sensitive
information from kernel stack memory. (CVE-2013-7265)
An information leak was discovered in the recvfrom, recvmmsg, and recvmsg
systemcalls when used with ISDN sockets in the Linux kernel. A local user
could explo ...
