Synopsis: Important: kernel security update
Issue Date: 2013-02-26
CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-0871
—
This update fixes the following security issue:
* A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel’s ptrace
implementation handled PTRACE_SETREGS requests when the debuggee was woken
due to a SIGKILL signal instead of being stopped. A local, unprivileged user
could use this flaw to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2013-0871, Important)
The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.
