<para>A bug with the System V Shared Memory interface
(specifically the &man.shmat.2; system call) has been fixed.
This bug can cause a shared memory segment to reference
unallocated kernel memory. In turn, this can permit a local
attacker to gain unauthorized access to parts of kernel memory,
possibly resulting in disclosure of sensitive information,
bypass of access control mechanisms, or privilege escalation.
More details can be found in security advisory <ulink
