Saw this earlier, apparently there is a serious issue that affects all of the
kernels up to 3.8
Will do a security thing tomorrow, if I get a chance, but it has been a while
since we've had a look at it, my fault.
Will update once I've reviewed.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may
lead
to a denial of service, information leak or privilege escalation. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:
CVE-2012-2121
Benjamin Herrenschmidt and Jason Baron discovered issues with the IOMMU
mapping of memory slots used in KVM device assignment. Local users with
the ability to assign devices could cause a denial of service due to a
memory page leak.
CVE-2012-3552
Hafid Lin reported an issue in the IP networking subsystem. A remote
user
can cause a denial of service (system crash) on servers running
applications that set options on sockets which are actively being
processed.
CVE-2012-4461
Jon Howell reported a denial of service issue in the KVM subsystem.
On systems that do not support the XSAVE feature, local users with
access to the /dev/kvm interface can cause a system crash.
CVE-2012-4508
Dmitry Monakhov and Theodore Ts'o reported a race condition in the ext4
filesystem. Local users could gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6537
Mathias Krause discovered information leak issues in the Transformation
user configuration interface. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN
capability
can gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6539
Mathias Krause discovered an issue in the networking subsystem. Local
users on 64-bit systems can gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6540
Mathias Krause discovered an issue in the Linux virtual server
subsystem.
Local users can gain access to sensitive kernel memory. Note: this issue
does not affect Debian provided kernels, but may affect custom kernels
built from Debian's linux-source-2.6.32 package.
CVE-2012-6542
Mathias Krause discovered an issue in the LLC protocol support code.
Local users can gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6544
Mathias Krause discovered issues in the Bluetooth subsystem.
Local users can gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6545
Mathias Krause discovered issues in the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol
support. Local users can gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6546
Mathias Krause discovered issues in the ATM networking support. Local
users can gain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6548
Mathias Krause discovered an issue in the UDF file system support.
Local users can obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2012-6549
Mathias Krause discovered an issue in the isofs file system support.
Local users can obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.
CVE-2013-0349
Anderson Lizardo discovered an issue in the Bluetooth Human Interface
Device Protocol (HIDP) stack. Local users can obtain access to sensitive
kernel memory.
CVE-2013-0914
Emese Revfy discovered an issue in the signal implementation. Local
users maybe able to bypass the address space layout randomization (ASLR)
facility due to a leaking
