| Package(s): | kernel |
CVE #(s): | CAN-2005-1767
CAN-2005-3044
|
| Created: | September 26, 2005 |
Updated: | September 28, 2005 |
| Description: |
A Denial of Service vulnerability was detected in the stack segment
fault handler. A local attacker could exploit this by causing stack
fault exceptions under special circumstances (scheduling), which lead
to a kernel crash. (CAN-2005-1767)
Vasiliy Averin discovered a Denial of Service vulnerability in the
"tiocgdev" ioctl call and in the "routing_ioctl" function. By calling
fget() and fput() in special ways, a local attacker could exploit this
to destroy file descriptor structures and crash the kernel.
