+Candidate: CVE-2007-3105
+References:
+Description:
+ Stack-based buffer overflow in the random number generator (RNG)
+ implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 might allow local root
+ users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges by setting the
+ default wakeup threshold to a value greater than the output pool size,
+ which triggers writing random numbers to the stack by the pool transfer
+ function involving "bound check ordering". NOTE: this issue might only
+ cross privilege boundaries in environments that have granular assignment
+ of privileges for root.
+Ubuntu-Description:
+ A buffer overflow was discovered in the random number generator. In
+ environments with granular assignment of root privileges, a local attacker
+ could gain additional privileges.
+Notes:
+ jmm> Vulnerable code not present in 2.4.27
+ jmm> 2.6.8 is affected, but since we don't have full SE Linux support in
+ jmm> Sarge, I don't believe this is an issue, which needs to be fixed
