USN-1814-1: Linux kernel (OMAP4) vulnerabilities
First published: Thu May 02 2013(Updated: )
Mathias Krause discovered an information leak in the Linux kernel's UDF file system implementation. A local user could exploit this flaw to examine some of the kernel's heap memory. (CVE-2012-6548) Mathias Krause discovered an information leak in the Linux kernel's ISO 9660 CDROM file system driver. A local user could exploit this flaw to examine some of the kernel's heap memory. (CVE-2012-6549) An integer overflow was discovered in the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem for the i915 video driver in the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (crash) or potentially escalate privileges. (CVE-2013-0913) A format-string bug was discovered in the Linux kernel's ext3 filesystem driver. A local user could exploit this flaw to possibly escalate privileges on the system. (CVE-2013-1848) A buffer overflow was discovered in the Linux Kernel's USB subsystem for devices reporting the cdc-wdm class. A specially crafted USB device when plugged-in could cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1860) A flaw was discovered in the SCTP (stream control transfer protocol) network protocol's handling of duplicate cookies in the Linux kernel. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) on another remote user querying the SCTP connection. (CVE-2013-2206) An information leak in the Linux kernel's dcb netlink interface was discovered. A local user could obtain sensitive information by examining kernel stack memory. (CVE-2013-2634) A kernel stack information leak was discovered in the RTNETLINK component of the Linux kernel. A local user could read sensitive information from the kernel stack. (CVE-2013-2635)
