A malicious remote user could exploit + this in order to initiate a denial of service attack. This issue was fixed + in Linux 2.6.12.6 and 2.6.13. +Notes: + This code looks completely different in 2.4; neither ip_append_data() (the + function that returns an error) nor icmp_push_reply() (the function that fails + to check this error) exist. So, I'm marking 2.4 as unaffected. + Actual CVE description: + Memory leak in the icmp_push_reply function in Linux 2.6 before + 2.6.12.6 and 2.6.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of + service (memory consumption) via a large number of crafted packets + that cause the ip_append_data function to fail, aka "DST leak in + icmp_push_reply." +upstream: released (2.6.12.6, 2.6.13) +2.6.8-sarge-security: released (2.6.8-16sarge2) [fix-dst-leak-in-icmp_push_reply.dpatch] +2.4.27-sid/sarge: released (2.4.27-12) [188_fix-dst-leak-in-icmp_push_reply.diff] +2.4.27-sarge-security: released (2.4.27-10sarge2) [188_fix-dst-leak-in-icmp_push_reply.diff] +linux-2.6: +2.4.19-woody-security: N/A +2.4.18-woody-security: N/A +2.4.17-woody-security: N/A +2.4.16-woody-security: N/A +2.4.17-woody-security-hppa: N/A +2.4.17-woody-security-ia64: N/A +2.4.18-woody-security-hppa: |
