CVE-2006-3634
The 1 futexatomicop and 2 futexatomiccmpxchginatomic functions in Linux kernel 2.6.17-rc4 to 2.6.18-rc2 perform the atomic futex operation in the kernel address space instead of the user address space, which allows local users to cause a denial of service crash...
Ubuntu 4.10 : linux-source-2.6.8.1 vulnerabilities (USN-110-1)
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...
security flaw
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...
