Do you know if these were patched, and therefore possibly
disclosed via the commits? With these details, it is difficult to
line them up to existing reports.

Bug 1 should be fixed in:

commit 3151527ee007b73a0ebd296010f1c0454a919c7d Author: Eric W.
Biederman <ebiederm () xmission com> Date:   Fri Mar 15 01:45:51 2013

userns:  Don't allow creation if the user is chrooted

Can you confirm this has no CVE?

Bug 2 is should be fixed by these:

commit 90563b198e4c6674c63672fae1923da467215f45 Author: Eric W.
Biederman <ebiederm () xmission com> Date:   Fri Mar 22 03:10:15 2013

vfs: Add a mount flag to lock read only bind mounts

commit 132c94e31b8bca8ea921f9f96a57d684fa4ae0a9 Author: Eric W.
Biederman <ebiederm () xmission com> Date:   Fri Mar 22 04:08:05 2013
-0700

vfs: Carefully propogate mounts across user namespaces

Can you confirm this has no CVE?

Bug 3 should be fixed in:

commit 92f28d973cce45ef5823209aab3138eb45d8b349 Author: Eric W.
Biederman <ebiederm () xmission com> Date:   Fri Mar 15 01:03:33 2013

scm: Require CAP_SYS_ADMIN over the current pidns to spoof pids.

Can you confirm this has no CVE?

Bug 4 isn't yet public... (it's unpatched so far and it's
considerably more severe than any of these).

--Andy

Sorry bug #4? not public yet I assume means no details publicly
officially? I can't do a CVE with no details (you can ask for one from
me privately).
