A race condition was discovered between dnotify fcntl() and close() in
the kernel. If a local attacker performed malicious dnotify requests,
they could cause memory consumption leading to a denial of service,
or possibly send arbitrary signals to any process. (CVE-2008-1375)

On SMP systems, a race condition existed in fcntl(). Local attackers
could perform malicious locks, causing system crashes and leading to
a denial of service. (CVE-2008-1669)

The tehuti network driver did not correctly handle certain IO functions.
A local attacker could perform malicious requests to the driver,
potentially accessing kernel memory, leading to privilege escalation
or access to private system information. (CVE-2008-1675)");
