tag_insight = "It was discovered that the direct-IO subsystem did not correctly validate
  certain structures. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a system
  crash, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-6716)

  It was discovered that the disabling of the ZERO_PAGE optimization could
  lead to large memory consumption. A local attacker could exploit this to
  allocate all available memory, leading to a denial of service.
  (CVE-2008-2372)
  
  It was discovered that the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) did
  not correctly validate its arguments. If DCCP was in use, a remote attacker
  could send specially crafted network traffic and cause a system crash,
  leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2008-3276)
  
  It was discovered that the SBNI WAN driver did not correctly check for the
  NET_ADMIN capability. A malicious local root user lacking CAP_NET_ADMIN
  would be able to change the WAN device configuration, leading to a denial
  of service. (CVE-2008-3525)
  
  It was discovered that the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) did
  not correctly validate the key length in the SCTP_AUTH_KEY option. If SCTP
  is in use, a remote attacker could send specially crafted network traffic
  that would crash the system, leading to a denial of service.
  (CVE-2008-3526)
  
  It was discovered that the tmpfs implementation did not correctly handle
  certain sequences of inode operations. A local attacker could exploit this
  to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2008-3534)
  
  It was discovered that the readv/writev functions did not correctly handle
  certain sequences of file operations. A local attacker could exploit this
  to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2008-3535)
  
  It was discovered that SCTP did not correctly validate its userspace
  arguments. A local attacker could call certain sctp_* functions with
  malicious options and cause a system crash, leading to a denial of service.
  (CVE-2008-3792, CVE-2008-4113, CVE-2008-4445)
  
  Johann Dahm and David Richter discovered that NFSv4 did not correctly
  handle certain file ACLs. If NFSv4 is in use, a local attacker could create
  a malicious ACL that could cause a system crash, leading to a denial of
  service. (CVE-2008-3915)";
