Description:
Race condition in run_posix_cpu_timers in Linux kernel before 2.6.16.21
allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG_ON crash) by causing one
CPU to attach a timer to a process that is exiting.
Notes:
jmm> Only exploitable on SMP systems
jmm> 2.6.8 most probably not affected, but there was a reproducer posted to vendor-sec, should be double-checked
jmm> Vulnerable code not present in 2.4
dannf> 2.6.8 didn't have posix-cpu-timers
mpitt> 2.6.10-hoary does not need 4th GIT patch, function does not exist
