Title:CVE-2013-6432 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (trusty) - medium.
Description:The ping_recvmsg function in net/ipv4/ping.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 does not properly interact with read system calls on ping sockets, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) by leveraging unspecified privileges to execute a crafted application. A flaw was discovered in the ipv4 ping_recvmsg function of the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
