+Description:
+ Linux kernel 2.6.17 and earlier, when running on IA64 or SPARC
+ platforms, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via
+ a malformed ELF file that triggers memory maps that cross region
+ boundaries.
+Ubuntu-Description:
+ Kirill Korotaev discovered that the ELF loader on the ia64 and sparc
+ platforms did not sufficiently verify the memory layout. By
+ attempting to execute a specially crafted executable, a local user
+ could exploit this to crash the kernel.
