Ubuntu Security Notice 1285-1 - Andrea Righi discovered a race condition in the KSM memory merging support. If KSM was being used, a local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Vasily Averin discovered that the NFS Lock Manager (NLM) incorrectly handled unlock requests. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. Vasiliy Kulikov discovered that taskstats did not enforce access restrictions. A local attacker could exploit this to read certain information, leading to a loss of privacy. Various other issues were also addressed.

a57a6a4677aad213b5b06f27421d5abb8eefa70db03930de1545039b4bd62c37Red Hat Security Advisory 2011-1465-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. IPv6 fragment identification value generation could allow a remote attacker to disrupt a target system's networking, preventing legitimate users from accessing its services. A signedness issue was found in the Linux kernel's CIFS implementation. A malicious CIFS server could send a specially-crafted response to a directory read request that would result in a denial of service or privilege escalation on a system that has a CIFS share mounted.
