kernel: multiple vulnerabilities
| Package(s): | kernel | CVE #(s): | CVE-2006-2445 CVE-2006-2448 CVE-2006-3085 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Created: | June 23, 2006 | Updated: | August 11, 2006 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Description: | There is a race condition error in the "posix-cpu-timers.c" script that
does not prevent another CPU from attaching the timer to an exiting
process. This could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of
service.
A flaw due to errors in "powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c" and "powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c" could allow userspace to provoke a machine check on 32-bit kernels. An infinite loop in "netfilter/xt_sctp.c" could be exploited by attackers to exhaust all available memory resources, creating a denial of service condition. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
