|
| Created: | September 26, 2012 |
Updated: | September 26, 2012 |
| Description: |
From the Red Hat advisory:
A race condition was found in the way access to inet->opt ip_options was
synchronized in the Linux kernel's TCP/IP protocol suite implementation.
Depending on the network facing applications running on the system, a
remote attacker could possibly trigger this flaw to cause a denial of
service. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial
of service regardless of the applications the system runs. |
