Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: um: vector: Do not use drvdata in release The drvdata is not available in release. Let's just use container_of()
to get the vector_device instance. Otherwise, removing a vector device
will result in a crash: RIP: 0033:vector_device_release+0xf/0x50

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
