From Ubuntu's latest :

A vulnerability has been found in the "ioremap" module. By performing
certain IO mapping operations, a local attacker could either read
memory pages he has not normally access to (information leak) or cause
a kernel crash (Denial of Service). This only affects the amd64
platform. (CAN-2005-3108)
