Medium: kernel

Issue Overview: A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Event Poll epoll subsystem handled large, nested epoll structures. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. A malicious Network File System version 4 NFSv4 server could return a crafted reply to a...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions prior to 3.2.24 Description: The epoll ctl system call in fs/eventpoll.c does not properly handle ELOOP errors in EPOLL CTL ADD operations, allowing local users to cause a denial of service file-descriptor consumption an...

UBUNTU-CVE-2012-3375

The epollctl system call in fs/eventpoll.c in the Linux kernel before 3.2.24 does not properly handle ELOOP errors in EPOLLCTLADD operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service file-descriptor consumption and system crash via a crafted application that attempts to create a...

kernel: excessive in kernel CPU consumption when creating large nested epoll structures

The epoll implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier does not properly traverse a tree of epoll file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via a crafted application that makes epollcreate and epollctl system calls...

[SECURITY] Fedora 15 Update: python-tornado-2.2.1-1.fc15

Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and tools. The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks and certainly most Python frameworks because it is non-blocking and reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll, it can handle...
