Denial Of Service (DoS)

kernel is vulnerable to denial of service DoS. The vulnerability exists through inconsistency in the methods for allocating and freeing NFSv4 ACL data; CVE-2010-4250 fix caused a regression; a flaw in nextpidmap and inetdiagbcaudit; flaws in the CAN implementation; a race condition in the memory...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

Kernel is vulnerable to denial of service DoS. A missing validation check was found in the bcmrelease and rawrelease functions in the Linux kernel's Controller Area Network CAN implementation. This could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service...
