Candidate: CVE-2007-6712
Description: 
 Integer overflow in the hrtimer_forward function (hrtimer.c) in Linux
 kernel 2.6.21-rc4, when running on 64-bit systems, allows local users to
 cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a timer with a large expiry
 value, which causes the timer to always be expired.
