Ubuntu Security Notice 3835-1 - Jann Horn discovered that the procfs file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly restrict the ability to inspect the kernel stack of an arbitrary task. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Jann Horn discovered that the mremap system call in the Linux kernel did not properly flush the TLB when completing, potentially leaving access to a physical page after it has been released to the page allocator. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service , expose sensitive information, or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
