Revision Date: 2015-02-23 Version: 10 Title: RHSA-2014:2010 -- kernel security update (Important) Description: The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linuxoperating system.* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled GS segment registerbase switching when recovering from a #SS (stack segment) fault on anerroneous return to user space. A local, unprivileged user could use thisflaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2014-9322, Important)Red Hat would like to thank Andy Lutomirski for reporting this issue.All kernel users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, whichcontain a backported patch to correct this issue. The system must berebooted for this update to take effect.
