kernel: load_elf_ binary() does not take account of the need to allocate sufficient space for the entire binary
A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel loaded ELF executables. Provided that an application was built as Position Independent Executable PIE, the loader could allow part of that application's data segment to map over the memory area reserved for its stack, potentially resulting in memory...
