Ubuntu Security Notice 1781-1 - Andrew Jones discovered a flaw with the xen_iret function in Linux kernel's Xen virtualizeation. In the 32-bit Xen paravirt platform an unprivileged guest OS user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (crash the system) or gain guest OS privilege. A flaw was reported in the permission checks done by the Linux kernel for /dev/cpu/*/msr. A local root user with all capabilities dropped could exploit this flaw to execute code with full root capabilities. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 1776-1 - A flaw was reported in the permission checks done by the Linux kernel for /dev/cpu/*/msr. A local root user with all capabilities dropped could exploit this flaw to execute code with full root capabilities. A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernels handling of memory ranges with PROT_NONE when transparent hugepages are in use. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (crash the system). Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 1767-1 - Andrew Cooper of Citrix reported a Xen stack corruption in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged user in a 32bit PVOPS guest can cause the guest kernel to crash, or operate erroneously. A failure to validate input was discovered in the Linux kernel's Xen netback (network backend) driver. A user in a guest OS may exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service to the guest OS and other guest domains. Various other issues were also addressed.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2013-0630-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A flaw was found in the way the xen_iret() function in the Linux kernel used the DS register. A local, unprivileged user in a 32-bit, para-virtualized Xen hypervisor guest could use this flaw to crash the guest or, potentially, escalate their privileges.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2013-0621-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A flaw was found in the way file permission checks for the "/dev/cpu/[x]/msr" files were performed in restricted root environments. A local user with the ability to write to these files could use this flaw to escalate their privileges to kernel level, for example, by writing to the SYSENTER_EIP_MSR register.
