Red Hat Security Advisory 2020-4431-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, bypass, denial of service, information leakage, memory leak, null pointer, out of bounds access, out of bounds read, out of bounds write, privilege escalation, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.

eed7b636ea5edbc1a400cd97ce4d08253b8e383d64a35a30fa8f5b9d768f838dIt was discovered that a race condition existed in the GFS2 file system in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). It was discovered that a use-after-free error existed in the block layer subsystem of the Linux kernel when certain failure conditions occurred. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
5442de6a129171e9103a7acd9d861ab0fda6074505e32a4ad08db9df45b30c61It was discovered that the USB video device class implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate control bits, resulting in an out of bounds buffer read. A local attacker could use this to possibly expose sensitive information (kernel memory). It was discovered that the Marvell Wireless LAN device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate the BSS descriptor. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other vulnerabilities have also been addressed.
3bf6f3467455c33428751c5faf437aa7d6c64fe01342c90cc65e1d94808e2336Ubuntu Security Notice 4095-2 - USN-4095-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux Hardware Enablement kernel from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM. Eli Biham and Lior Neumann discovered that the Bluetooth implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate elliptic curve parameters during Diffie-Hellman key exchange in some situations. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
d920881c3d68724f3a5cfff94df2bf728ddbda002eda6e615804ba3f9aa609e1Ubuntu Security Notice 4093-1 - It was discovered that a heap buffer overflow existed in the Marvell Wireless LAN device driver for the Linux kernel. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Andrei Vlad Lutas and Dan Lutas discovered that some x86 processors incorrectly handle SWAPGS instructions during speculative execution. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.

A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Wen Xu discovered that the XFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly track inode validations. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious XFS image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
