Descriptions

ufs_vnops.c in FreeBSD 6.1 allows local users to cause an unspecified denial of service by calling the ftruncate function on a file type that is not VREG, VLNK or VDIR, which is not defined in POSIX.

ufs_vnops.c en FreeBSD 6.1 permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio llamando a la función ftruncate en un archivo que no es del tipo VREG, VLNK ni VDIR, el cual no está definido en POSIX.

Month of Apple Bugs - This is a specially crafted HFS+ filesystem in a DMG image that can cause the do_hfs_truncate() function to panic the kernel (denial of service), when attempting to remove a file from the mounted filesystem. This issue can't lead to arbitrary code execution, although there's a significant risk of local HFS+ filesystems corruption.
