[USN-3335-1] Linux kernel vulnerability

Severity High

Affected Packages 9

CVEs 1

The system could be made to run programs as an administrator.

It was discovered that the stack guard page for processes in the Linux
kernel was not sufficiently large enough to prevent overlapping with the
heap. An attacker could leverage this with another vulnerability to execute
arbitrary code and gain administrative privileges
