Descriptions

OpenBSD kernel 3.3 and 3.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) and possibly execute arbitrary code in 3.4 via a program with an invalid header that is not properly handled by (1) ibcs2_exec.c in the iBCS2 emulation (compat_ibcs2) or (2) exec_elf.c, which leads to a stack-based buffer overflow.

El Kernel OpenBSD 3.3 y 3.4 permite que usuarios locales causen una denegación de servicio (kernel panic) y posiblemente ejecuten código arbitrario en 3.4 mediante un programa con una cabecera inválida. Esto no lo maneja adecuadamente en (1) bcs2_exec.c o (2) exec_elf.c, que lleva a un desbordamiento de búfer.
