kernel: local denial of service due to NT bit leakage
Linux kernel before 2.6.18, when running on x8664 systems, does not properly save or restore EFLAGS during a context switch, which allows local users to cause a denial of service crash by causing SYSENTER to set an NT flag, which can trigger a crash on the IRET of the next task...
CVE-2008-1778
CVE-2008-1778 : The vulnerability is described as an unspecified issue in the floating point context switch implementation on Sun Solaris 9/10 for x86, potentially allowing a local user to cause a denial of service (application exit), corrupt data, or trigger incorrect calculations via unknown ve...

CVE-2006-5755
Linux kernel before 2.6.18, when running on x8664 systems, does not properly save or restore EFLAGS during a context switch, which allows local users to cause a denial of service crash by causing SYSENTER to set an NT flag, which can trigger a crash on the IRET of the next task...
CVE-2006-5755
CVE-2006-5755 affects the Linux kernel on x86_64 where, during a context switch, EFLAGS were not properly saved/restored. This can allow a local user to trigger a denial-of-service crash by causing SYSENTER to set an NT flag, which may crash on the IRET of the next task. The vulnerability is docu...
