  - CVE-2015-1420: Race condition in the handle_to_path     function in fs/fhandle.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to bypass intended size restrictions and     trigger read operations on additional memory locations     by changing the handle_bytes value of a file handle     during the execution of this function (bnc#915517).

  - CVE-2015-4692: The kvm_apic_has_events function in     arch/x86/kvm/lapic.h in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by leveraging /dev/kvm access     for an ioctl call (bnc#935542).

  - CVE-2015-4167 CVE-2014-9728 CVE-2014-9730 CVE-2014-9729     CVE-2014-9731: Various problems in the UDF filesystem     were fixed that could lead to crashes when mounting     prepared udf filesystems.

  - CVE-2015-4002: drivers/staging/ozwpan/ozusbsvc1.c in the     OZWPAN driver in the Linux kernel did not ensure that     certain length values are sufficiently large, which     allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (system crash or large loop) or possibly execute     arbitrary code via a crafted packet, related to the (1)     oz_usb_rx and (2) oz_usb_handle_ep_data functions     (bnc#933934).

  - CVE-2015-4003: The oz_usb_handle_ep_data function in     drivers/staging/ozwpan/ozusbsvc1.c in the OZWPAN driver     in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (divide-by-zero error and system     crash) via a crafted packet (bnc#933934).

  - CVE-2015-4001: Integer signedness error in the     oz_hcd_get_desc_cnf function in     drivers/staging/ozwpan/ozhcd.c in the OZWPAN driver in     the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute     arbitrary code via a crafted packet (bnc#933934).

  - CVE-2015-4036: A potential memory corruption in     vhost/scsi was fixed.

  - CVE-2015-2922: The ndisc_router_discovery function in     net/ipv6/ndisc.c in the Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol     implementation in the IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel     allowed remote attackers to reconfigure a hop-limit     setting via a small hop_limit value in a Router     Advertisement (RA) message (bnc#922583).

  - CVE-2015-3636: It was found that the Linux kernels ping     socket implementation did not properly handle socket     unhashing during spurious disconnects, which could lead     to a use-after-free flaw. On x86-64 architecture     systems, a local user able to create ping sockets could     use this flaw to crash the system. On non-x86-64     architecture systems, a local user able to create ping     sockets could use this flaw to escalate their privileges     on the system.

  - CVE-2015-2041: net/llc/sysctl_net_llc.c in the Linux     kernel used an incorrect data type in a sysctl table,     which allowed local users to obtain potentially     sensitive information from kernel memory or possibly     have unspecified other impact by accessing a sysctl     entry (bnc#919007).

  - CVE-2015-3339: Race condition in the prepare_binprm     function in fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to gain privileges by executing a setuid program     at a time instant when a chown to root is in progress,     and the ownership is changed but the setuid bit is not     yet stripped.

  - CVE-2015-1465: The IPv4 implementation in the Linux     kernel did not properly consider the length of the     Read-Copy Update (RCU) grace period for redirecting     lookups in the absence of caching, which allowed remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     consumption or system crash) via a flood of packets     (bnc#916225).

Wen Xu discovered a use-after-free flaw in the Linux kernel's ipv4 ping support. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or gain administrative privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3636)

A memory corruption flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's scsi subsystem. A local attacker could potentially exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2015-4036).

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2564-1 advisory.

    An integer overflow was discovered in the stack randomization feature of the Linux kernel on 64 bit     platforms. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to bypass the Address Space Layout Randomization     (ASLR) protection mechanism. (CVE-2015-1593)

    An information leak was discovered in the Linux Kernel's handling of userspace configuration of the link     layer control (LLC). A local user could exploit this flaw to read data from other sysctl settings.
    (CVE-2015-2041)

    An information leak was discovered in how the Linux kernel handles setting the Reliable Datagram Sockets     (RDS) settings. A local user could exploit this flaw to read data from other sysctl settings.
    (CVE-2015-2042)
