Descriptions

The LDT implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.25.x before 2.6.25.11 on x86_64 platforms uses an incorrect size for ldt_desc, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

La implementación LDT en el kernel de Linux versiones 2.6.25.x anteriores a 2.6.25.11 en plataformas x86_64 utiliza un tamaño incorrecto para ldt_desc, lo que permite a los usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo del sistema) o posiblemente alcanzar privilegios por medio de vectores no especificados.
