Details: 

 - flaw in network IGMP processing that a allowed a remote user on the
   local network to cause a denial of service (disabling of multicast reports)
   if the system is running multicast applications (CVE-2002-2185, moderate)

 - flaw in remap_page_range() with O_DIRECT writes that allowed a local
   user to cause a denial of service (crash)  (CVE-2004-1057, important)

 - flaw in exec() handling on some 64-bit architectures that allowed
   a local user to cause a denial of service (crash)  (CVE-2005-2708, important)

 - flaw in procfs handling during unloading of modules that allowed a
   local user to cause a denial of service or potentially gain privileges
   (CVE-2005-2709, moderate)

 - flaw in IPv6 network UDP port hash table lookups that allowed a local
   user to cause a denial of service (hang)  (CVE-2005-2973, important)

 - flaw in 32-bit-compat handling of the TIOCGDEV ioctl that allowed
   a local user to cause a denial of service (crash)  (CVE-2005-3044, important)

 - network buffer info leak using the orinoco driver that allowed
   a remote user to possibly view uninitialized data  (CVE-2005-3180, important)

 - flaw in IPv4 network TCP and UDP netfilter handling that allowed
   a local user to cause a denial of service (crash)  (CVE-2005-3275, important)

 - flaw in the IPv6 flowlabel code that allowed a local user to cause a
   denial of service (crash)  (CVE-2005-3806, important)

 - flaw in network ICMP processing that allowed a local user to cause
   a denial of service (memory exhaustion)  (CVE-2005-3848, important)

 - flaw in file lease time-out handling that allowed a local user to cause
   a denial of service (log file overflow)  (CVE-2005-3857, moderate)

 - flaw in network IPv6 xfrm handling that allowed a local user to
   cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion)  (CVE-2005-3858, important)
