Bug 14884

Note, nvidia-current and nvidia304 driver in bug 14787 needs to be pushed at the same time as this due to the prebuilt kmods.

Advisory:
This kernel update is based on upstream -longterm 3.14.27 and fixes the 
following security issues:

arch/x86/kernel/tls.c in the Thread Local Storage (TLS) implementation in
the Linux kernel through 3.18.1 allows local users to bypass the espfix
protection mechanism, and consequently makes it easier for local users to
bypass the ASLR protection mechanism, via a crafted application that makes
a set_thread_area system call and later reads a 16-bit value (CVE-2014-8133).
  
The paravirt_ops_setup function in arch/x86/kernel/kvm.c in the Linux kernel
through 3.18 uses an improper paravirt_enabled setting for KVM guest kernels,
which makes it easier for guest OS users to bypass the ASLR protection
mechanism via a crafted application that reads a 16-bit value (CVE-2014-8134).

The do_double_fault function in arch/x86/kernel/traps.c in the Linux kernel
through 3.17.4 does not properly handle faults associated with the Stack
Segment (SS) segment register, which allows local users to cause a denial
of service (panic) via a modify_ldt system call, as demonstrated by
sigreturn_32 in the linux-clock-tests test suite (CVE-2014-9090).

arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S in the Linux kernel before 3.17.5 does not
properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment (SS) segment
register, which allows local users to gain privileges by triggering an
IRET instruction that leads to access to a GS Base address from the wrong
space (CVE-2014-9322).

For other fixes in this update, see the referenced changelogs.

More CVE fixes that I already merged in 3.14.27-1.mga4
(just posted on oss-sec)

On x86_64 Linux kernels a malicious user program can do a partial ASLR
bypass through TLS base addresses leak when attacking other programs
(CVE-2014-9419)

Linux kernel built with the iso9660 file system(CONFIG_ISO9660_FS) support
is vulnerable to an infinite recursion loop flaw, which could lead to a
crash or render a system unresponsive/unusable after a while. This occurs
while mounting an iso9660 image. An unprivileged user/process could use this
flaw to crash the system resulting in DoS (CVE-2014-9420).

Tested mga4_64,

Testing complete for the new kernel-desktop-3.14.27-1.mga4, Ok for me nothing to report and seems to work properly.

Note that I am having some problems getting Vbox running
properly on real hardware after this upgrade. I need at
least a couple more days to define what the problem(s) are.

Upon attempting to launch Virtualbox client, M5 i586 KDE Live-CD, the following error
message boxes are displayed:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine M5 i586 KDE Live-CD
The virtual machine "M5 i586 KDE Live-CD" has terminated unexpectedly during startup

The VirtualBox kernel modules do not match this version of VirtualBox. The installation
of VirtualBox was apparently not successful. Executing

'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

may correct this. Make sure that you do not mix the OSE version and the PUEL version
of VirtualBox.

In summary. Start with a blank hard drive and install, then update,
M4.1 i586 KDE That gets you to 3.14.24-desktop-1. Enable the update
testing repo and update to: 3.14.27-desktop-1. All that works just fine.
Then install Virtualbox virtualbox-4.3.20-1. Reboot system then attempt
to run client M5 i586 KDE Live-CD. That fails. My official Vbox test system
is successfully running virtualbox-4.3.20-1. So it looks like attempting
to run virtualbox-4.3.20-1 on 3.14.27-desktop-1 is not working. This is
the case for both the i586 and x86_64 versions.

Note also that I have tried several times to install Vbox, on hardware,
on a 3.14.24-desktop-1 system were it works, then update that system
to 3.14.27-desktop-1 but that fails the same way.

verify that you have the matching "virtualbox-kernel-3.14.27-*" installed

and if it is, did you reboot (or do a service virtualbox restart) ?

if that didn't help, when running the 3.14.27 kernel, do as root "depmod -a" and reboot... does it work then ?

Back later today.

Mageia 4 i586 server kernel is running fine on my newer PogoLinux workstation at home.  Virtualbox runs fine, but I don't yet have a Mageia 5 VM at home.

Something strange going on here. During boot if I manually select ( GRUB2 )
3.14.27 then Vbox works fine. If I reboot the system 3.14.27 is not
selected and it reverts back to 3.14.18 and of course Vbox does not
work. I'll see if this is the same on my x86-64 platform later today.

Testing on Mageia 4x64, real hardware :

Everything fine so far, no problems with virtualbox, could launch previously set Mageia 4 and Mageia 5 virtual machines.
