Descriptions

The proc_do_xprt function in net/sunrpc/sysctl.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.26.3 does not check the length of a certain buffer obtained from userspace, which allows local users to overflow a stack-based buffer and have unspecified other impact via a crafted read system call for the /proc/sys/sunrpc/transports file.

La función proc_do_xprt de net/sunrpc/sysctl.c del núcleo de Linux 2.6.26.3, no comprueba el tamaño de determinado búfer obtenido del espacio de usuario (userspace), esto permite a los usuarios locales provocar un desbordamiento del búfer de pila y tener otros impactos no especificados mediante una llamada manipulada al sistema de lectura del fichero /proc/sys/sunrpc/transports.
