Red Hat Security Advisory 2015-2636-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's file system implementation handled rename operations in which the source was inside and the destination was outside of a bind mount. A privileged user inside a container could use this flaw to escape the bind mount and, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. It was found that the x86 ISA is prone to a denial of service attack inside a virtualized environment in the form of an infinite loop in the microcode due to the way delivering of benign exceptions such as #AC and #DB is handled. A privileged user inside a guest could use these flaws to create denial of service conditions on the host kernel.

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's file system implementation handled rename operations in which the source was inside and the destination was outside of a bind mount. A privileged user inside a container could use this flaw to escape the bind mount and, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's IPC subsystem initialized certain fields in an IPC object structure that were later used for permission checking before inserting the object into a globally visible list. A local, unprivileged user could potentially use this flaw to elevate their privileges on the system.

A local attacker could use this to escalate their privileges, expose confidential information, or cause a denial of service (system crash). It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not check if a new IPv6 MTU set by a user space application was valid. A remote attacker could forge a route advertisement with an invalid MTU that a user space daemon like NetworkManager would honor and apply to the kernel, causing a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
