Ubuntu Security Notice 5962-1 - It was discovered that the Upper Level Protocol subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle sockets entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Davide Ornaghi discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle VLAN headers in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5961-1 - It was discovered that abcm2ps incorrectly handled memory when parsing specially crafted ABC files. An attacker could use this issue to cause abcm2ps to crash, leading to a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Chiba of Topsec Alpha Lab discovered that abcm2ps incorrectly handled memory when parsing specially crafted ABC files. An attacker could use this issue to cause abcm2ps to crash, leading to a denial of service.
