<p>This update fixes the CVEs described below.</p>

<ul>

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-7566">CVE-2015-7566</a>

    <p>Ralf Spenneberg of OpenSource Security reported that the visor
    driver crashes when a specially crafted USB device without bulk-out
    endpoint is detected.</p></li>

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-8767">CVE-2015-8767</a>

    <p>An SCTP denial-of-service was discovered which can be triggered by a
    local attacker during a heartbeat timeout event after the 4-way
    handshake.</p></li>

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-8785">CVE-2015-8785</a>

    <p>It was discovered that local users permitted to write to a file on
    a FUSE filesystem could cause a denial of service (unkillable loop
    in the kernel).</p></li>

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-0723">CVE-2016-0723</a>

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

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-2069">CVE-2016-2069</a>

    <p>Andy Lutomirski discovered a race condition in flushing of the TLB
    when switching tasks.  On an SMP system this could possibly lead to
    a crash, information leak or privilege escalation.</p></li>

</ul>

<p>For the oldoldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been
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.</p>

<p>For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems will be fixed
soon.</p>

<p>For the stable distribution (jessie), <a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-7566">CVE-2015-7566</a>, <a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-8767">CVE-2015-8767</a> and
