+Candidate: CVE-2006-1055
+References:
+Description:
+ Quoting Greg KH:
+ Al just pointed me at an old sysfs patch that went into the tree last
+ year that has some potential security problems. Turns out that if you
+ write to a sysfs file exactly PAGE_SIZE worth of data, with no zeros in
+ it, there's a good chance you could read off the end of the kernel
+ buffer into who knows where.
+Notes:
+ jmm> This was judged non-exploitable by Al Viro, but it's still a local DoS
+ jmm> 2.4 N/A, as it doesn't have sysfs
+ .
+ troyh> N/A for sarge, it was broken in 2.6.12 - 2.6.17-rc1. 2.6.8 is fine,
+ and since its's sysfs 2.4 is N/A.
