| Package(s): | kernel linux |
CVE #(s): | CVE-2013-0349
CVE-2013-1773
|
| Created: | March 6, 2013 |
Updated: | March 6, 2013 |
| Description: |
From the Ubuntu advisory:
An information leak was discovered in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth stack
when HIDP (Human Interface Device Protocol) support is enabled. A local
unprivileged user could exploit this flaw to cause an information leak from
the kernel. (CVE-2013-0349)
A flaw was discovered on the Linux kernel's VFAT filesystem driver when a
disk is mounted with the utf8 option (this is the default on Ubuntu). On a
system where disks/images can be auto-mounted or a FAT filesystem is
mounted an unprivileged user can exploit the flaw to gain root privileges.
