kernel: fix soft lockups/OOM issues with unix socket garbage collector

Linux kernel 2.6.28 allows local users to cause a denial of service "soft lockup" and process loss via a large number of sendmsg function calls, which does not block during AFUNIX garbage collection and triggers an OOM condition, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-5029...

kernel: Unix sockets kernel panic

The scmdestroy function in net/core/scm.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.27.4, 2.6.26, and earlier makes indirect recursive calls to itself through calls to the fput function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service panic via vectors related to sending an SCMRIGHTS message through a UNIX...

CVE-2008-5029

CVE-2008-5029 affects the Linux kernel 2.6.27.4, 2.6.26 and earlier via the __scm_destroy function in net/core/scm.c, which can cause indirect recursive calls when closing sockets after an SCM_RIGHTS message. This local DoS (panic) condition results from the kernel’s handling of UNIX domain socke...
