Linux Kernel TCP_Input.C Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability
The Linux kernel is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize specially crafted ACK responses. Attackers can exploit this issue to cause a NULL-pointer dereference and crash the kernel. Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.23.8 as well as 2.6.24-rc1 and 2.6.24-rc1 are vulnerable. |
