Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-1775-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux' package(s) announced via the USN-1775-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux' package(s) announced via the USN-1775-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: 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. (CVE-2013-0268) 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). (CVE-2013-0309) A flaw was discovered on the Linux kernel's VFAT filesystem driver when a disk is mounted with the utf8 option (this is the default on Ubuntu). On a system where disks/images can be auto-mounted or a FAT filesystem is mounted an unprivileged user can exploit the flaw to gain root privileges. (CVE-2013-1773) Affected Software/OS: 'linux' package(s) on Ubuntu 10.04. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.2 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
