Descriptions

The DCCP support in the do_dccp_getsockopt function in net/dccp/proto.c in Linux kernel 2.6.20 and later does not verify the upper bounds of the optlen value, which allows local users running on certain architectures to read kernel memory or cause a denial of service (oops), a related issue to CVE-2007-1730.

La ayuda DCCP en la funciĆ³n do_dccp_getsockopt en net/dccp/proto.c en Linux kernel 2.6.20 y posteriores no verifica los limites superiores en el valor optlenm, lo cual permite a usuarios locales funcionando bajo ciertas arquitecturas leer memoria del kernel o provocar denegaciĆ³n de servicio (oops), un asunto relacionado con CVE-2007-1730.
