Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.843250
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-3360-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux' package(s) announced via the USN-3360-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux' package(s) announced via the USN-3360-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a Wake-
on-Lan data structure. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive
information (kernel memory). (CVE-2014-9900)

It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to
/proc/iomem. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive
information. (CVE-2015-8944)

It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the
performance events and counters subsystem of the Linux kernel for ARM64. A
local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)
or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-8955)

It was discovered that the SCSI generic (sg) driver in the Linux kernel
contained a double-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to
cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2015-8962)

Sasha Levin discovered that a race condition existed in the performance
events and counters subsystem of the Linux kernel when handling CPU unplug
events. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-8963)

Tilman Schmidt and Sasha Levin discovered a use-after-free condition in the
TTY implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2015-8964)

It was discovered that the fcntl64() system call in the Linux kernel did
not properly set memory limits when returning on 32-bit ARM processors. A
local attacker could use this to gain administrative privileges.
(CVE-2015-8966)

It was discovered that the system call table for ARM 64-bit processors in
the Linux kernel was not write-protected. An attacker could use this in
conjunction with another kernel vulnerability to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2015-8967)

It was discovered that the generic SCSI block layer in the Linux kernel did
not properly restrict write operations in certain situations. A local
attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or
possibly gain administrative privileges. (CVE-2016-10088)

Alexander Potapenko discovered a race condition in the Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture (ALSA) subsystem in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could
use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory).
(CVE-2017-1000380)

Li Qiang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPUs in the
Linux kernel did not properly validate some ioctl arguments. A local
attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2017-7346)

Tuomas Haanpaa and Ari Kauppi discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server
implementations in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the end of
buffer. A remote attacker could use this to craft requests that cause a
denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2017-7895)

It was discovered that an integer underflow existed in the Edgeport USB
Serial ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]
