Linux kernel ip_options_get denial of service
| linux-ipoptionsget-dos (18522) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
Linux kernel is vulnerable to an integer overflow in the ip_options_get function. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the kernel to crash.
Consequences:
Denial of Service
Remedy:
For Linux kernel 2.6.x:
Upgrade to the latest version of Linux kernel (2.6.10rc3bk5 or later), available from the Linux kernel Web site. See References.

- CVE-2004-1334: Integer overflow in the ip_options_get function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a cmsg_len that contains a -1, which leads to a buffer overflow.
