Descriptions
Stack-based buffer overflow in the econet_sendmsg function in net/econet/af_econet.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36.2, when an econet address is configured, allows local users to gain privileges by providing a large number of iovec structures.
Desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila en la función econet_sendmsg en net/econet/af_econet.c en el kernel de Linux anteriores a v2.6.36.2, cuando hay configurada una dirección econet, permite a usuarios locales conseguir privilegios, proporcionando un gran número de estructuras iovec.
The setup_arg_pages function in fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36, when CONFIG_STACK_GROWSDOWN is used, does not properly restrict the stack memory consumption of the environment for a 32-bit application on a 64-bit platform, which allows local users to cause a denial of service via a crafted exec system call, a related issue to CVE-2010-2240. drivers/media/video/v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c in the Video4Linux implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36 on 64-bit platforms does not validate the destination of a memory copy operation, which allows local users to write to arbitrary kernel memory locations, and consequently gain privileges, via a VIDIOCSTUNER ioctl call on a /dev/video device, followed by a VIDIOCSMICROCODE ioctl call on this device. Various other issues have been addressed as well.
