    local attacker during a heartbeat timeout event after the 4-way
    handshake.

    a FUSE filesystem could cause a denial of service (unkillable loop
    in the kernel).

    A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the TIOCGETD ioctl.
    A local attacker could use this flaw for denial-of-service.

CVE-2016-2069

    when switching tasks.  On an SMP system this could possibly lead to
    a crash, information leak or privilege escalation.

fixed in version 2.6.32-48squeeze19.  Additionally, this version
includes upstream stable update 2.6.32.70.  This is the final update
to the linux-2.6 package for squeeze.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems will be fixed
soon.

For the stable distribution (jessie), CVE-2015-7566, CVE-2015-8767 and
CVE-2016-0723 were fixed in linux version 3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u3 and
