-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey all,
CAN-2005-2617 describes a local DOS on 64bit machines: The syscall32_setup_pages function in syscall32.c for Linux kernel 2.6.12 and later, on the 64-bit x86 platform, does not check the return value of the insert_vm_struct function, which allows local users to trigger a memory leak via a 32-bit application with crafted ELF headers. http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=9fb1759a3102c26cd8f64254a7c3e532782c2bb8 http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=9fb1759a3102c26cd8f64254a7c3e532782c2bb8 Micah -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDD61v9n4qXRzy1ioRAvumAJ9k/0+/k9an4RrMyet7PtSovjM85gCdH/jq R3nomBvjsb+HK4zCeZKHbu4= =zlkD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
