Linux Kernel Get_Compat_Timespec and PTrace Local Denial Of Service Vulnerabilities
Two local denial-of-service vulnerabilities affect the Linux kernel. These issues are platform specific. The 'get_compat_timespec()' issue affects only the SPARC architecture; the 'ptrace()' issue affects only the ia64 architecture. Local attackers may exploit these vulnerabilities to trigger a kernel crash, denying service to legitimate users. |
