security flaw

fs/exec.c in Linux 2.6, when one thread is tracing another thread that shares the same memory map, might allow local users to cause a denial of service deadlock by forcing a core dump when the traced thread is in the TASKTRACED state...

USN-110-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Alexander Nyberg discovered an integer overflow in the sysfswritefile function. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the kernel or possibly even execute arbitrary code with root privileges by writing to an user-writable file in /sys under certain low-memory conditions. However, there are...

CVE-2005-0937

Some futex functions in futex.c for Linux kernel 2.6.x perform getuser calls while holding the mmapsem semaphore, which could allow local users to cause a deadlock condition in dopagefault by triggering getuser faults while another thread is executing mmap or other functions...

CVE-2005-0937

The CVE-2005-0937 issue is a Linux kernel vulnerability in futex.c (2.6.x) where get_user may be invoked while mmap_sem is held. This can lead to a deadlock in do_page_fault if another thread is executing mmap or related operations, as described in the Linux kernel advisories. Public references (...
