Description:
Jeremy Fitzhardinge has reported some vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel, which potentially can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the "sys32_ni_syscall()" and "sys32_vm86_warning()" functions and can be exploited to cause buffer overflows.
