+Debian-specific: no
+CVE IDs        : 
+
+Several local and remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux
+kernel that may lead to a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary
+code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
+following problems:
+
+
+ CVE-2005-2553
+
+     A null pointer dereference in ptrace when tracing a 64-bit
+     executable can cause the kernel to crash.
+
+ CVE-2004-0427
+
+     A local denial of service vulnerability in do_fork() has been found.     
+
+ CVE-2005-0489
+
+     A local denial of service vulnerability in proc memory handling has
+     been found.
+
+ CVE-2004-0394
+
+     A buffer overflow in the panic handling code has been found.
+
+ CVE-2004-0447
+
+     A local denial of service vulnerability through a null pointer
+     dereference in the IA64 process handling code has been found.
+
+ CVE-2004-0554
+
+     A local denial of service vulnerability through an infinite loop in
+     the signal handler code has been found.
+
+ CVE-2004-0565
+
+     An information leak in the context switch code has been found.
+
+ CVE-2004-0685
+
+     Unsafe use of copy_to_user in USB drivers may disclose sensitive
+     information.
+
+ CVE-2005-0001
+
+     A race condition in the page fault handler may allow privilege
+     escalation.
+
+ CVE-2004-0883
+
+     Multiple vulnerabilities in the SMB filesystem code may allow denial
+     of service of information disclosure.
+
+ CVE-2004-0949
+
+     An information leak discovered in the SMB filesystem code.
+
+ CVE-2004-1016
+
+     A local denial of service vulnerability has been found in the SCM layer.
+
+ CVE-2004-1333
+
+     An integer overflow in the terminal code may allow a local denial of
+     service vulnerability.
+
+ CVE-2004-0997
+
+     A local privilege escalation in the MIPS assembly code has been found.
+ 
+ CVE-2004-1335
+ 
+     A memory leak in the ip_options_get() function may lead to denial of
+     service.
+      
+ CVE-2004-1017
+
+     Multiple overflows exist in the io_edgeport driver which might be usable
+     as a denial of service attack vector.
+ 
+ CVE-2005-0124
+
+     Bryan Fulton reported a bounds checking bug in the coda_pioctl function
+     which may allow local users to execute arbitrary code or trigger a denial
+     of service attack.
+
+ CVE-2005-0528
+
+     A local privilege escalation in the mremap function has been found
+
+ CVE-2003-0984
+
+     Inproper initialization of the RTC may disclose information.
+
+ CVE-2004-1070
+
+     Insufficient input sanitising in the load_elf_binary() function may
+     lead to privilege escalation.
+
+ CVE-2004-1071
+
+     Incorrect error handling in the binfmt_elf loader may lead to privilege
+     escalation.
+
+ CVE-2004-1072
+
+     A buffer overflow in the binfmt_elf loader may lead to privilege
+     escalation or denial of service.
+
+ CVE-2004-1073
+
+     The open_exec function may disclose information.
+
+ CVE-2004-1074

+
+     A denial of service vulnerability in the ELF loader has been found.
+
+ CVE-2004-1068
+
+     A programming error in the unix_dgram_recvmsg() function may lead to
+     privilege escalation.
+
+ CVE-2004-1234
+
+     The ELF loader is vulnerable to denial of service through malformed
+     binaries.
+
+ CVE-2005-0003
+
+     Crafted ELF binaries may lead to privilege escalation, due to 
+     insufficient checking of overlapping memory regions.
+
+ CVE-2004-1235
+
+     A race condition in the load_elf_library() and binfmt_aout() functions
+     may allow privilege escalation.
+
+ CVE-2005-0504
+
+     An integer overflow in the Moxa driver may lead to privilege escalation.
+
+ CVE-2005-0384
+
