Description: The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36 does not properly reload the FS and GS segment registers, which allows host OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) via a KVM_RUN ioctl call in conjunction with a modified Local Descriptor Table (LDT).

Title: ELSA-2011:0004: kernel security, bug fix, and enhancement update (Important)
Description: Race condition in the __exit_signal function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service via vectors related to multithreaded exec, the use of a thread group leader in kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c, and the selection of a new thread group leader in the de_thread function in fs/exec.c.

Linux Kernel is prone to an overflow condition. The 'pppol2tp_sendmsg' function in 'net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c' fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input resulting in an integer overflow. With a specially crafted sendto call, a local attacker can potentially gain elevated privileges.
70290 Linux Kernel net/tipc/socket.c get_name Function Local Stack Memory Disclosure

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the 'get_name' function in 'net/tipc/socket.c' fails to initialize a certain structure, which will disclose potentially sensitive kernel stack memory information to a local attacker.

Linux Kernel on ThinkPad contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when 'drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c' fails to properly restrict access to the video output control state, allowing a local attacker to use a read or write operation to cause a denial of service.

Linux Kernel is prone to an integer signedness error that will allow an overflow condition. The TIPC implementation in the 'tipc_msg_build()' function in 'net/tipc/msg.c' fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow. With a specially crafted sendmsg call, a local attacker can potentially gain elevated privileges.

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when 'net/ipv4/inet_diag.c' fails to properly audit 'INET_DIAG' bytecode, allowing a local attacker to use a crafted 'INET_DIAG_REQ_BYTECODE' instruction in a netlink message containing multiple attribute elements to cause a denial of service via a kernel infinite loop.

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when a race condition in the '__exit_signal' function in 'kernel/exit.c' is exploited to cause a denial of service via vectors related to multithreaded exec, the use of a thread group leader in 'kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c', and the selection of a new thread group leader in the 'de_thread' function 'in fs/exec.c'.

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the 'snd_hdsp_hwdep_ioctl' function in 'sound/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c' fails to initialize a certain structure, disclosing information from kernel stack memory via an 'SNDRV_HDSP_IOCTL_GET_CONFIG_INFO IOCTL' call to a local attacker.
69551 Linux Kernel fs/exec.c setup_arg_pages CONFIG_STACK_GROWSDOWN Crafted Exec Sy...

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when the 'setup_arg_pages' function in 'fs/exec.c' doesn't properly restrict the stack memory consumption of the 'arguments' or 'environment' when 'CONFIG_STACK_GROWSDOWN' is used, allowing a local attacker to cause a denial of service via a crafted exec system call.

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the USB Subsystem fails to properly initialize certain structure members, allowing a local attacker to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a TIOCGICOUNT IOTCL call, and the 'mos7720_ioctl' function in 'drivers/usb/serial/mos7720.c' and 'mos7840_ioctl' function in 'drivers/usb/serial/mos7840.c'.
69528 Linux Kernel USB Subsystem drivers/usb/serial/mos7720.c mos7720_ioctl Functio...

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the USB Subsystem fails to properly initialize a certain structure member, allowing a local attacker to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a TIOCGICOUNT IOTCL call and the 'mos7720_ioctl' function in 'drivers/usb/serial/mos7720.c' and the 'mos7840_ioctl' function in 'drivers/usb/serial/mos7840.c'.

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the 'ivtvfb_ioctl' function in 'drivers/media/video/ivtv/ivtvfb.c' fails to properly initialize a certain structure member, which will disclose potentially sensitive kernal stack memory information via an FBIOGET_VBLANK IOTCL call to a local attacker.
69525 Linux Kernel drivers/video/sis/sis_main.c sisfb_ioctl Function FBIOGET_VBLANK...

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the 'sisfb_ioctl' function in 'drivers/video/sis/sis_main.c' fails to properly initialize a certain structure member, allowing a local attacker to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a FBIOGET_VBLANK IOTCL call.
69521 Linux Kernel ipc/shm.c copy_shmid_to_user Function shmctl System Call Local M...

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the 'copy_shmid_to_user' function in 'ipc/shm.c' fails to properly initialize an unspecified structure, which can be exploited via the shmctl system call to disclose kernel stack memory to a local attacker.
69469 Xen Backend Drivers Kernel Thread Reference Leak DoS

Xen contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered due to the backend drivers leaking references to kernel threads, which when exploited by a malicious guest can prevent a proper virtual shutdown, prevent 'xm' commands from functioning properly, and may result in loss of availability for the service.
69162 Linux Kernel net/packet/af_packet.c Multiple Function Stack Memory Disclosure

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when the 'packet_getname_spkt()' and 'packet_getname()' functions in 'net/packet/af_packet.c' fail to properly initialize a member of a certain structure before copying it to userspace, which will disclose kernel stack memory to a local attacker.
69161 Linux Kernel net/ax25/af_ax25.c ax25_getname() Function Stack Memory Disclosure

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when the 'ax25_getname()' function in 'net/ax25/af_ax25.c' fails to properly initialize a member of a certain structure before copying it to userspace, which will disclose kernel stack memory to a local attacker.
69017 Linux Kernel net/x25/x25_facilities.c x25_parse_facilities() Function Memory ...

A memory corruption flaw exists in Linux Kernel. The 'x25_parse_facilities()' function in 'net/x25/x25_facilities.c' suffers from a boundary error, resulting in kernel heap memory corruption. With specially crafted X.25 traffic, a local attacker can cause a loss of availability.
69013 Linux Kernel on 64-bit drivers/scsi/gdth.c ioc_general() Function Local Overf...

Linux Kernel on 64-bit is prone to an overflow condition. The 'ioc_general' function in 'drivers/scsi/gdth.c' fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input resulting in an integer overflow. With a specially crafted overly large argument in an ioctl call, a local attacker can potentially cause a denial of service.
