We have just released a rebootless update to deal with a critical security vulnerability: CVE-2013-2850: Remote heap buffer overflow in iSCSI target subsystem. If an iSCSI target is configured and listening on the network, a remote attacker can corrupt heap memory, and gain kernel execution control over the system and gain kernel code execution. As this vulnerability is exploitable by remote users, Ksplice is issuing an update for all affected kernels immediately. This update...

This is a 0-day local privilege escalation found by Tommi Rantala while fuzzing the kernel using Trinity. The cause of that oops was patched in 3.8.10 in commit 8176cced706b5e5d15887584150764894e94e02f. 'spender' on Reddit has an interesting writeup on the details of this exploit. We've already shipped this for Fedora 17 and 18 for the 3.8 kernel, and an update for Ubuntu 13.04 will ship as soon as Canonical releases their kernel. We have a policy of only shipping updates...
