Candidate: CVE-2006-4814
References:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=2f77d107050abc14bc393b34bdb7b91cf670c250
Description:
The mincore function in the Linux kernel before 2.4.33.6 does not
properly lock access to user space, which has unspecified impact and
attack vectors, possibly related to a deadlock.
Ubuntu-Description:
Doug Chapman discovered an improper lock handling in the mincore()
function. A local attacker could exploit this to cause an eternal
hang in the kernel, rendering the machine unusable.
