Sun Solaris TCP Loopback/Fusion Code Local Denial of Service Vulnerability

Sun Solaris TCP Loopback/Fusion Code Local Denial of Service Vulnerability

Sun Solaris is prone to a local denial-of-service vulnerability.

An unprivileged local attacker may exploit this issue to exhaust all available kernel memory. This will cause the system to hang, resulting in denial-of-service conditions.

Solaris 10 SPARC and x86 are affected by this issue.
