Upstream information
Description
The do_exit function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36.2 does not properly handle a KERNEL_DS get_fs value, which allows local users to bypass intended access_ok restrictions, overwrite arbitrary kernel memory locations, and gain privileges by leveraging a (1) BUG, (2) NULL pointer dereference, or (3) page fault, as demonstrated by vectors involving the clear_child_tid feature and the splice system call.SUSE information

Note from the SUSE Security Team
We are affected by this problem, likely for all kernels. To mitigate the exploit, use: echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_oops, which will panic your machine on exploit tries. Fixed packages will be released.Note from the SUSE Security Team on the kernel-default package
SUSE will no longer fix all CVEs in the Linux Kernel anymore, but declare some bug classes as won't fix. Please refer to TID 21496 for more details. SUSE Bugzilla entry: 657350 [RESOLVED / FIXED]SUSE Security Advisories:
