    Debian Bug : 618485

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leak. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

    CVE-2010-2524

    David Howells reported an issue in the Common Internet File System (CIFS).
    Local users could cause arbitrary CIFS shares to be mounted by introducing
    malicious redirects.

    CVE-2010-3875

    Vasiliy Kulikov discovered an issue in the Linux implementation of the
    Amateur Radio AX.25 Level 2 protocol. Local users may obtain access to
    sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2010-4075

    Dan Rosenberg reported an issue in the tty layer that may allow local
    users to obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2010-4655

    Kees Cook discovered several issues in the ethtool interface which may
    allow local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to obtain access to
    sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-0695

    Jens Kuehnel reported an issue in the InfiniBand stack. Remote attackers can
    exploit a race condition to cause a denial of service (kernel panic).

    CVE-2011-0710

    Al Viro reported an issue in the /proc/<pid>/status interface on the
    s390 architecture. Local users could gain access to sensitive memory
    in processes they do not own via the task_show_regs entry.

    CVE-2011-0711

    Dan Rosenberg reported an issue in the XFS filesystem. Local users may
    obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-0726

    Kees Cook reported an issue in the /proc/pid/stat implementation. Local
    users could learn the text location of a process, defeating protections
    provided by address space layout randomization (ASLR).

    CVE-2011-1010

    Timo Warns reported an issue in the Linux support for Mac partition tables.
    Local users with physical access could cause a denial of service (panic)
    by adding a storage device with a malicious map_count value.

    CVE-2011-1012

    Timo Warns reported an issue in the Linux support for Mac partition tables.
    Local users with physical access could cause a denial of service (panic)
    by adding a storage device with a malicious map_count value.

    CVE-2011-1017

    Timo Warns reported an issue in the Linux support for LDM partition tables.
    Users with physical access can gain access to sensitive kernel memory or
    gain elevated privileges by adding a storage device with a specially
    crafted LDM partition.

    CVE-2011-1078

    Vasiliy Kulikov discovered an issue in the Bluetooth subsystem. Local users
    can obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-1079

    Vasiliy Kulikov discovered an issue in the Bluetooth subsystem. Local users
    with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can cause a denial of service (kernel
    Oops).

    CVE-2011-1080

    Vasiliy Kulikov discovered an issue in the Netfilter subsystem. Local users
    can obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-1090

    Neil Horman discovered a memory leak in the setacl() call on NFSv4
    filesystems. Local users can exploit this to cause a denial of service
    (Oops).

    CVE-2011-1093

    Johan Hovold reported an issue in the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol
    (DCCP) implementation. Remote users could cause a denial of service by
    sending data after closing a socket.

    CVE-2011-1160

    Peter Huewe reported an issue in the Linux kernel's support for TPM security
    chips. Local users with permission to open the device can gain access to
    sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-1163

    Timo Warns reported an issue in the kernel support for Alpha OSF format disk
    partitions. Users with physical access can gain access to sensitive kernel
    memory by adding a storage device with a specially crafted OSF partition.

    CVE-2011-1170

    Vasiliy Kulikov reported an issue in the Netfilter arp table
    implementation. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can gain
    access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-1171

    Vasiliy Kulikov reported an issue in the Netfilter IP table
    implementation. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can gain
    access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-1172

    Vasiliy Kulikov reported an issue in the Netfilter IP6 table
    implementation. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can gain
    access to sensitive kernel memory.

    CVE-2011-1173

    Vasiliy Kulikov reported an issue in the Acorn Econet protocol
    implementation. Local users can obtain access to sensitive kernel memory on
    systems that use this rare hardware.

    CVE-2011-1180

    Dan Rosenberg reported a buffer overflow in the Information Access Service
    of the IrDA protocol, used for Infrared devices. Remote attackers within IR
