Candidate: CVE-2006-3741
References:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=b8444d00762703e1b6146fce12ce2684885f8bf6
Description:
The perfmonctl system call (sys_perfmonctl) in Linux kernel 2.4.x and
2.6 before 2.6.18, when running on Itanium systems, does not properly
track the reference count for file descriptors, which allows local
users to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption).

dannf> I don't think 2.4 is affected - there are no existing calls to fput
