Descriptions
The sfc (aka Solarflare Solarstorm) driver in the Linux kernel before 3.2.30 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (DMA descriptor consumption and network-controller outage) via crafted TCP packets that trigger a small MSS value.
El controlador sfc (también conocido como Solarflare Solarstorm) en el Kernel de Linux anteriores a v3.2.30 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de descriptor de DMA y fallo del controlador de red) a través de paquetes TCP manipulados que provocan valores MSS pequeños.
