It was found that the Linux kernel"s implementation of vectored pipe read and write functionality did not take into account the I/O vectors that were already processed when retrying after a failed atomic access operation, potentially resulting in memory corruption due to an I/O vector array overrun. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. A flaw was found in the Linux kernels handling of the SCTPs automatic handling of dynamic multi-homed connections. A race condition in the way the Linux kernel handles lists of associations in SCTP sockets using Address Configuration Change messages, leading to list corruption and panics. A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel"s networking implementation handled UDP packets with incorrect checksum values. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel, resulting in a denial of service on the system, or cause a denial of service in applications using the edge triggered epoll functionality.
