TITLE

Nexus 7 (2013) Run on device Android Privileged vulnerability in Kernel

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2016-004257

DESCRIPTION

The kernel in Android before 2016-08-05 on Nexus 7 (2013) devices allows attackers to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka internal bug 28522518. Nexus 7 (2013) Run on device Android Kernel contains a privileged vulnerability. Google Nexus is prone to a privilege-escalation vulnerability. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges within the context of the kernel. Google Nexus versions Nexus 7 (2013) is vulnerable. This issue is being tracked by Android Bug ID A-28522518. ========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-3082-2 September 19, 2016 linux-ti-omap4 vulnerability ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: The system could be made to run programs as an administrator. Software Description: - linux-ti-omap4: Linux kernel for OMAP4 Details: Chiachih Wu, Yuan-Tsung Lo, and Xuxian Jiang discovered that the legacy ABI for ARM (OABI) had incomplete access checks for epoll_wait(2) and semtimedop(2). Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: linux-image-3.2.0-1488-omap4 3.2.0-1488.115 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
