Upgraded
- k/kernel-source-4.9.34_smp-noarch-1.txz
This kernel fixes two “Stack Clash” vulnerabilities reported by Qualys.
The first issue may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code with elevated
privileges. Failed attack attempts will likely result in denial-of-service
conditions. The second issue can be exploited to bypass certain security
restrictions and perform unauthorized actions.
For more information, see:
