CVE-2010-3904

CVE-2010-3904 is a Linux kernel flaw in the RDS implementation where rds_page_copy_user does not validate user-space addresses, enabling local privilege escalation via crafted sendmsg/recvmsg calls. Affected: Linux kernels prior to 2.6.36; fixed in later kernel releases (e.g., Red Hat/CentOS advi...

CVE-2010-3904: Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input

The rdspagecopyuser function in net/rds/page.c in the Reliable Datagram Sockets RDS protocol implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36 does not properly validate addresses obtained from user space, which allows local users to gain privileges via crafted use of the sendmsg and recvmsg syste...
