kernel is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS). The vulnerability exists as a flaw was found in the b43 driver in the Linux kernel. If a system had an active wireless interface that uses the b43 driver, an attacker able to send a specially-crafted frame to that interface could cause a denial of service.
