Description:   Opened: 2005-04-01 03:16 0000
From Ubuntu Security Notice USN-103-1

Previous kernels did not restrict the use of the N_MOUSE line
discipline in the serial driver. This allowed an unprivileged user to
inject mouse movement and/or keystrokes (using the sunkbd driver) into
the input subsystem, taking over the console or an X session, where
another user is logged in.  (CAN-2005-0839)
