Description: 
 Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x for x86 allows local users to cause a denial of
 service (system crash), possibly via an infinite loop that triggers a signal
 handler with a certain sequence of fsave and frstor instructions, as
 originally demonstrated using a "crash.c" program.
Notes: 
 jmm> I don't know at which version this was merged, but I've verified that
 jmm> the stock 2.4.27 and 2.6.8 contain the fix
