Linux Kernel Sysctl_String Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Linux kernel is prone to a local buffer-overflow vulnerability. This issue is due to an off-by-one error in the 'sysctl' subsystem. A successful attack may result in a denial-of-service condition or possibly arbitrary code execution in the context of the local kernel. Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.15 in the 2.6 series are considered vulnerable to this issue. |
