binfmt_misc used user pages directly the CPIA driver had an off-by-one error 
in the buffer code which made it possible for users to write into kernel 
memory 
-----
dolore!!!!
-----
the CPUID and MSR drivers had a problem in the module unloading code which 
could cause a system a crash if they were set to automatically load and 
unload 
-----
tanto dolore
-----
there was a possible hang in the classifier code the getsockopt and 
setsockopt system calls did not handle sign bits correctly which made a local 
DoS and other attacks possible 
-----
ci stanno castigando????
-----
the sysctl system call did not handle sign bits correctly which allowed a 
user to write in kernel memory 
-----
ancora
-----
ptrace/exec races that could give a local user extra privileges possible 
abuse of a boundary case in the sockfilter code 
-----
Janezz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-----
SYSV shared memory code could overwrite recently freed memory which might 
cause problems the packet lengh checks in the masquerading code were a bit 
lax (probably not exploitable) 
-----
almeno questo!
-----
some x86 assembly bugs caused the wrong number of bytes to be copied a local 
user could deadlock the kernel due to bugs in the UDP port allocation.
--------------------
Miga poco!!!!
Bestia!
