Descriptions

Array index error in arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S in the Linux kernel before 2.6.28-rc8 on 64-bit MIPS platforms allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via an o32 syscall with a small syscall number, which leads to an attempted read operation outside the bounds of the syscall table.

Error de índice de array en arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S en el kernel de Linux anterior a 2.6.28-rc8 en plataformas MIPS de 64 bits, permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (caída del sistema) a través de una llamada al sistema 032 con un número de llamada pequeño, esto provoca un intento de operación de lectura fuera del rango de la tabla de la llamada al sistema.
