kernel: setup_arg_pages: diagnose excessive argument size

The setupargpages function in fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36, when CONFIGSTACKGROWSDOWN is used, does not properly restrict the stack memory consumption of the 1 arguments and 2 environment for a 32-bit application on a 64-bit platform, which allows local users to cause a denial of...

fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37 does not enable the OOM Killer to assess use of stack memory by arrays representing the 1 arguments and 2 environment, which allows local users to cause a denial of service memory consumption via a crafted exec system call, aka an "OOM dodging issue," a...
