Ubuntu Security Notice 5605-1 - Asaf Modelevsky discovered
that the Intel 10GbE PCI Express Ethernet driver for the Linux
kernel performed insufficient control flow management. A local
attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. It
was discovered that the virtual terminal driver in the Linux kernel
did not properly handle VGA console font changes, leading to an
out-of-bounds write. A local attacker could use this to cause a
denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
