Description Moritz Muehlenhoff univentionstaff 2014-12-05 15:28:25 CET
Missing access checks in the Cirrus VGA emulator may result in privilege escalation (CVE-2014-8106)
Comment 1 Moritz Muehlenhoff univentionstaff 2015-01-19 13:06:05 CET
When merging the existing patches from UCS 4.0 I had to make a few changes: The previous ones duplicated the patch and the content of the patch (to address changes in source package generation using src format 3). The underlying problem was that the UCS-specific changes were added between the existing entries in the patches/series file. I've added a patch which moves them to the end and now the package build works fine again.

I've added the patches from the Wheezy DSA. Tests with installing and running a base system were successful.
