DSA-1588 linux-2.6 -- denial of service

ID: oval:org.mitre.oval:def:8027Date: (C)2009-12-15   (M)2023-11-09
Class: PATCHFamily: unix




Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: Johannes Bauer discovered an integer overflow condition in the hrtimer subsystem on 64-bit systems. This can be exploited by local users to trigger a denial of service (DoS) by causing the kernel to execute an infinite loop. Jan Kratochvil reported a local denial of service condition that permits local users on systems running the amd64 flavor kernel to cause a system crash. Paul Harks discovered a memory leak in the Simple Internet Transition (SIT) code used for IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels. This can be exploited by remote users to cause a denial of service condition. David Miller and Jan Lieskovsky discovered issues with the virtual address range checking of mmaped regions on the sparc architecture that may be exploited by local users to cause a denial of service.
