| From the openSUSE advisory:
CVE-2010-4347: A
local user could inject ACPI code into the kernel via the
world-writable "custom_debug" file, allowing local
privilege escalation.
CVE-2010-4258: A local attacker could use a Oops (kernel
crash) caused by other flaws to write a 0 byte to a
attacker controlled address in the kernel. This could lead
to privilege escalation together with other issues.
CVE-2010-4165: The do_tcp_setsockopt function in
net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel did not properly
restrict TCP_MAXSEG (aka MSS) values, which allows local
users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a setsockopt
call that specifies a small value, leading to a
divide-by-zero error or incorrect use of a signed integer.
CVE-2010-4175: A local attacker could cause memory
overruns in the RDS protocol stack, potentially crashing
the kernel. So far it is considered not to be exploitable.
CVE-2010-4163: By submitting certain I/O requests with 0
length, a local user could have caused a kernel panic.
