+Candidate: CVE-2009-2903
+Description:
+ The check for the ipddpN device in the handle_ip_over_ddp() function 
+ returns -NODEV to the atalk_rcv() function when the device does not 
+ exist. The atalk_rcv() function then directly returns that value to its 
+ caller. There is a missing call to kfree_skb() in these unaccepted 
+ IP-DDP datagram that can exhaust the kernel memory eventually. It 
+ affects Linux hosts with appletalk and ipddp modules loaded, that are 
+ attached to the same link. Thanks to Mark Smith for reporting this issue 
+ to us.
