Linux Kernel DCCP Proto.C Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
The Linux kernel is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to adequately bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized buffer. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause denial-of-service conditions. Arbitrary code execution may also be possible, but this has not been confirmed. Versions prior to 2.6.20.5 are vulnerable. |
