Candidate: CVE-2007-2878
References:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.21.2
Description:
The VFAT compat ioctls in the Linux kernel before 2.6.21.2, when run
on a 64-bit system, allow local users to corrupt a kernel_dirent struct
and cause a denial of service (system crash) via unknown vectors.
Ubuntu-Description:
Notes:
dannf> reproduced in etch using reproducer provided in the changeset
dannf> backporting the fix only proved hazardous as there was some recent
dannf> restructuring - i've elected to backport that as well
dannf> (fat-move-ioctl-compat-code.patch)
dannf> marking sarge kernels as N/A because amd64 wasn't officially supported
dannf> and the backport is non-trivial (read: risk outweighs benefit)
