The vulnerability of the sock_setsockopt function in the kernel of the Linux operating system’s net/core/sock.c file allows a hacker to cause a service failure or exert other effects.

The vulnerability of the socksetsockopt function in the kernel’s net/core/sock.c file in the Linux operating system arises from the execution of an operation beyond the buffer boundaries in memory. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a service failure or other adverse...

kernel: Signed overflow for SO_{SND|RCV}BUFFORCE

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of setsockopt for the SOSND|RCVBUFFORCE setsockopt system call. Users with non-namespace CAPNETADMIN are able to trigger this call and create a situation in which the sockets sendbuff data size could be negative. This could adversely affect...
