A vulnerability in Cryptsetup, concretely in the scripts that unlock the system partition when the partition is ciphered using LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup). This vulnerability allows to obtain a root initramfs shell on affected systems. The vulnerability is very reliable because it doesn't depend on specific systems or configurations. Attackers can copy, modify or destroy the hard disc as well as set up the network to data. In cloud environments it is also possible to remotely exploit this vulnerability without having "physical access". Cryptsetup versions 2:1.7.3-2 and below are affected.

64411cf75336417b9d476a2bf486dd76842d1e2a6149f57b59c3900238a08677A security issue in Linux ASLR implementation which affects some AMD processors has been found. The issue affects to all Linux process even if they are not using shared libraries (statically compiled). The problem appears because some mmapped objects (VDSO, libraries, etc.) are poorly randomized in an attempt to avoid cache aliasing penalties for AMD Bulldozer (Family 15h) processors. Affected systems have reduced the mmapped files entropy by eight. Grsecurity/PaX is also affected. The total entropy for the VVAR/VDSO, mmapped files and libraries of a processes are reduced by eight. The number of possible locations where the mapped areas can be placed are reduced by 87.5%.
775d1f12325916fd03a6f940333695b6ae0d7cad1e68d2d8d0149405f2dd39edA bug in Linux ASLR implementation has been found. The issue is that the mmap base address for processes is not properly randomized on some architectures due to an improper bit-mask manipulation. Affected systems have reduced the mmap area entropy of the processes by half.

An attacker can remotely perform an denial of service attack by sending a specially crafted email. No interaction from the user is needed to produce the crash just receive the malicious email.
ac7559e1e73b67d06c92b883f14f41cbf66238ec15aa4ca1bdae29c219ef9c78The release of this advisory provides exploitation details in relation a weakness in the Linux ASLR implementation. The problem appears when the executable is PIE compiled and it has an address leak belonging to the executable. These details were obtained through the Packet Storm Bug Bounty program and are being released to the community.

All statically linked applications compiled with glibc and eglibc are affected, independent of the operating system distribution. Note that this problem is not solved by only patching the eglibc, but it is also necessary to recompile all static executables. Proof of concept exploit included.
