Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.71687
Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu USN-1457-1 (linux-image-2.6.38-15-generic)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to linux-image-2.6.38-15-generic announced via advisory USN-1457-1. Details: Andy Adamson discovered a flaw in the Linux kernel's NFSv4 implementation. A remote NFS server (attacker) could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-4131) A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine) virtual cpu setup. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to crash the system leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2012-1601) A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's KVM (kernel virtual machine). An administrative user in the guest OS could leverage this flaw to cause a denial of service in the host OS. (CVE-2012-2121) Steve Grubb reported a flaw with Linux fscaps (file system base capabilities) when used to increase the permissions of a process. For application on which fscaps are in use a local attacker can disable address space randomization to make attacking the process with raised privileges easier. (CVE-2012-2123) Schacher Raindel discovered a flaw in the Linux kernel's memory handling when hugetlb is enabled. An unprivileged local attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service and potentially gain higher privileges. (CVE-2012-2133) Solution: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 11.04: linux-image-2.6.38-15-generic 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-generic-pae 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-omap 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-powerpc 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-powerpc-smp 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-powerpc64-smp 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-server 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-versatile 2.6.38-15.60 linux-image-2.6.38-15-virtual 2.6.38-15.60 http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-1457-1 CVSS Score: 7.2 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:NR/C:C/I:C/A:C
