Bug 9121

There is now a new kernel-vserver to validate...

Advisory:
---------
This kernel-vserver update provides upstream 3.4.32 kernel and resolves the
following security issues:

The xen_failsafe_callback function in Xen for the Linux kernel 2.6.23 and
other versions, when running a 32-bit PVOPS guest, allows local users to
cause a denial of service (guest crash) by triggering an iret fault,
leading to use of an incorrect stack pointer and stack corruption.
(CVE-2013-0190 / XSA-40)

Linux kernel when returning from an iret assumes that %ds segment is safe
and uses it to reference various per-cpu related fields. Unfortunately
the user can modify the LDT and provide a NULL one. Whenever an iret is
called we end up in xen_iret and try to use the %ds segment and cause an
general protection fault.
Malicious or buggy unprivileged user space can cause the guest kernel to
crash, or permit a privilege escalation within the guest, or operate
erroneously. (CVE-2013-0228 / XSA-42)

A flaw was found in the way __skb_recv_datagram() processed skbs with no
payload when MSG_PEEK was requested. An unprivileged local user could use
this flaw to cause local denial of service. (CVE-2013-0290)

A race conditon in ptrace can lead to kernel stack corruption and arbitrary
kernel-mode code execution. (CVE-2013-0871)

A flaw was found in how printk manages buffers when calling log_prefix
function from  call_console_drivers creating a buffer overflow.
An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to cause local denial of
service. (CVE pending)


Other fixes in this release:
- adds Intel Lynx Point-LP, Haswell and Wellsburg support to ata/ahci,
  smbus, watchdog.
