+Candidate: CVE-2009-2584
+Description:
+ Off-by-one error in the options_write function in
+ drivers/misc/sgi-gru/gruprocfs.c in the SGI GRU driver in the Linux kernel
+ 2.6.30.2 and earlier on ia64 and x86 platforms might allow local users to
+ overwrite arbitrary memory locations and gain privileges via a crafted count
+ argument, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.

+Notes:
+ - high urgency since exploit code is currently in the wild
+ - the patch is still not applied upstream so i've sent a message upstream to lkml:
