Local users could cause a denial of service by using an AF_INET6 socket to connect to an IPv4 destination. CVE-2013-2234 Mathias Krause reported a memory leak in the implementation of PF_KEYv2 sockets. Local users could gain access to sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2013-2237 Nicolas Dichtel reported a memory leak in the implementation of PF_KEYv2 sockets. Local users could gain access to sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2013-2239 Jonathan Salwan discovered multiple memory leaks in the openvz kernel flavor. Local users could gain access to sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2013-2851 Kees Cook reported an issue in the block subsystem. Local users with uid 0 could gain elevated ring 0 privileges. This is only a security issue for certain specially configured systems. CVE-2013-2852 Kees Cook reported an issue in the b43 network driver for certain Broadcom wireless devices. Local users with uid 0 could gain elevated ring 0 privileges. This is only a security issue for certain specially configured systems. CVE-2013-2888 Kees Cook reported an issue in the HID driver subsystem. A local user, with the ability to attach a device, could cause a denial of service . CVE-2013-2892 Kees Cook reported an issue in the pantherlord HID device driver.
