CVE-2011-1581

La función bond_select_queue en drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c en el kernel de Linux anteriores a v2.6.39, cuando esta configurado un dispositivo de red con un gran número de colas de recepción pero el tx_queues es el predeterminado, no restringen adecuadamente los índices de cola, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (BUG y caída del sistema) o posiblemente tener un impacto no especificado mediante el envío de tráfico de red.

It was discovered that the /proc filesystem did not correctly handle permission changes when programs executed. A local attacker could hold open files to examine details about programs running with higher privileges, potentially increasing the chances of exploiting additional vulnerabilities. Vasiliy Kulikov discovered that the Bluetooth stack did not correctly clear memory. A local attacker could exploit this to read kernel stack memory, leading to a loss of privacy. Various other issues were also addressed.
