============================================================================ Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2374-1 October 09, 2014 linux vulnerabilities ============================================================================ A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the kernel. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel Details: Ben Hawkes reported some off by one errors for report descriptors in the Linux kernel's HID stack. A physically proximate attacker could exploit these flaws to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) via a specially crafted device. (CVE-2014-3184) Several bounds check flaws allowing for buffer overflows were discovered in the Linux kernel's Whiteheat USB serial driver. A physically proximate attacker could exploit these flaws to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a specially crafted device. (CVE-2014-3185) A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's UDF filesystem (used on some CD-ROMs and DVDs) when processing indirect ICBs. An attacker who can cause CD, DVD or image file with a specially crafted inode to be mounted can cause a denial of service (infinite loop or stack consumption). (CVE-2014-6410) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: linux-image-2.6.32-67-386 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-generic 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-generic-pae 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-ia64 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-lpia 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-powerpc 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-powerpc-smp 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-powerpc64-smp 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-preempt 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-server 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-sparc64 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-sparc64-smp 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-versatile 2.6.32-67.134 linux-image-2.6.32-67-virtual 2.6.32-67.134 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. If you use linux-restricted-modules, you have to update that package as well to get modules which work with the new kernel version. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-server, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
