CVE-2013-2224 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-2224):
  A certain Red Hat patch for the Linux kernel 2.6.32 on Red Hat Enterprise
  Linux (RHEL) 6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid free
  operation and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a sendmsg system
  call with the IP_RETOPTS option, as demonstrated by hemlock.c.  NOTE: this
  vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2012-3552.
