Linux kernel before 2.6.16.21 and 2.6.17, when running on PowerPC, does not
perform certain required access_ok checks, which allows local users to read
arbitrary kernel memory on 64-bit systems (signal_64.c) and cause a denial
of service (crash) and possibly read kernel memory on 32-bit systems
(signal_32.c).
