Security fixes for 2.6.32-stable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Willy, here are the security patches I've recently applied to Debian's
2.6.32 branch, aside from those for CVE-2015-2925 - which we already
discussed - and for issues not yet fixed upstream.

These have already been released without reported regressions. The
mapping to CVE IDs is:

  * md: use kzalloc() when bitmap is disabled (CVE-2015-5697)
  * ipv6: addrconf: validate new MTU before applying it (CVE-2015-0272)
  * virtio-net: drop NETIF_F_FRAGLIST (CVE-2015-5156)
  * USB: whiteheat: fix potential null-deref at probe (CVE-2015-5257)
  * ipc/sem.c: fully initialize sem_array before making it visible
    (no CVE ID, but similar issue to the following fix)
  * Initialize msg/shm IPC objects before doing ipc_addid()
    (CVE-2015-7613)

Ben.
