CVE-2010-1451

The TSB I-TLB load implementation in arch/sparc/kernel/tsb.S in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33 on the SPARC platform does not properly obtain the value of a certain PAGEEXEC4U bit and consequently does not properly implement a non-executable stack, which makes it easier for context-dependent...

CVE-2010-1451

CVE-2010-1451 affects the SPARC build of the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.33, where TSB I-TLB load handling in arch/sparc/kernel/tsb.S fails to correctly obtain the _PAGE_EXEC_4U bit, resulting in an incompletely implemented non-executable stack. This could allow context-dependent local attackers to...
