Descriptions
The install_special_mapping function in mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc6 does not make an expected security_file_mmap function call, which allows local users to bypass intended mmap_min_addr restrictions and possibly conduct NULL pointer dereference attacks via a crafted assembly-language application.
función install_special_mapping en mm/mmap.c en el kernel de Linux anterior v2.6.37-rc6 no crea una llamada a la función security_file_mmap esperada, lo que permite a usuarios locales superar las restricciones mmap_min_addr establecidas y probablemente conducir ataques referencia a puntero NULO a través de una aplicación con lenguaje ensamblador manipulado.
