GCVE-VVD-MAGEIA-2017-242
Advisory Published
This kernel update is based on upstream 4.4.79 and fixes at least the
following security issues:
Linux kernel built with the VirtIO GPU driver(CONFIG_DRM_VIRTIO_GPU) support
is vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while creating a
virtio gpu object in virtio_gpu_object_create(). A user/process could use
this flaw to leak host kernel memory potentially resulting in Dos
(CVE-2017-10810).
It also contains followup fixes to the Stack Clash (CVE-2017-1000370,
CVE-2017-1000371) security issues resolved in kernels released at end
of June, 2017.
For other upstream fixes in this update, read the referenced changelogs.
