Descriptions

drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34 on ThinkPad devices, when the X.Org X server is used, does not properly restrict access to the video output control state, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a (1) read or (2) write operation.

drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c en el kernel de Linux anterior a v2.6.34 en los dispositivos de ThinkPad, cuando el servidor de X, X.Org, se utiliza, no restringe correctamente el acceso al estado del control de salida de vídeo, lo que permite a usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (caída del sistema) a través de operaciones de (1) lectura o (2) escritura.
