kfreebsd's Linux binary compatibility layer (linux.ko module) may
vulnerable to local privilege escalation or denial of service (kernel
panic).  This module is typically not used by Debian GNU/kFreeBSD unless
the system administrator has enabled it.

This affects kfreebsd-10, and also kfreebsd-9 in wheezy.
