Candidate: CVE-2008-5701
Description:
 Array index error in arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S in the Linux kernel
 before 2.6.28-rc8 on 64-bit MIPS platforms allows local users to cause a
 denial of service (system crash) via an o32 syscall with a small syscall
 number, which leads to an attempted read operation outside the bounds of
 the syscall table.
