Description
A denial of service flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's XFS file
system implementation ordered directory hashes under certain conditions.
A local attacker could use this flaw to corrupt the file system by creating
directories with colliding hash values, potentially resulting in a system
crash. (CVE-2014-7283, Moderate)
An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the syscall tracing
functionality of the Linux kernel's perf subsystem. A local, unprivileged
user could use this flaw to crash the system. (CVE-2014-7825, Moderate)
An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the syscall tracing
functionality of the Linux kernel's ftrace subsystem. On a system with
ftrace syscall tracing enabled, a local, unprivileged user could use this
flaw to crash the system, or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2014-7826, Moderate)
