+Candidate: CVE-2007-2878
+References:
+ http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.21.2
+Description: 
+ The VFAT compat ioctls in the Linux kernel before 2.6.21.2, when run
+ on a 64-bit system, allow local users to corrupt a kernel_dirent struct
+ and cause a denial of service (system crash) via unknown vectors.
+Ubuntu-Description: 
+ Luca Tettamanti discovered a flaw in the VFAT compat ioctls on 64-bit
+ systems.  A local attacker could corrupt a kernel_dirent struct and cause
+ a denial of service.
+Notes: 
+ dannf> reproduced in etch using reproducer provided in the changeset
+ dannf> backporting the fix only proved hazardous as there was some recent
+ dannf> restructuring - i've elected to backport that as well
+ dannf> (fat-move-ioctl-compat-code.patch)
+ dannf> marking sarge kernels as N/A because amd64 wasn't officially supported
+ dannf> and the backport is non-trivial (read: risk outweighs benefit)
+ dannf>
+ dannf> reverted from etch-security branch in r9295 due to ABI change
