CVE-2010-4668

The blkrqmapuseriov function in block/blk-map.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc7 allows local users to cause a denial of service panic via a zero-length I/O request in a device ioctl to a SCSI device, related to an unaligned map. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix f...

CVE-2010-4163

The CVE-2010-4163 issue affects the Linux kernel, where blk_rq_map_user_iov in block/blk-map.c is vulnerable before version 2.6.36.2. A local attacker can trigger a denial of service (kernel panic) by submitting a zero-length I/O request via a device ioctl to a SCSI device. The description explic...
