Descriptions
The (1) udp_recvmsg and (2) udpv6_recvmsg functions in the Linux kernel before 4.0.6 do not properly consider yielding a processor, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system hang) via incorrect checksums within a UDP packet flood.
Vulnerabilidad en las funciones (1) udp_recvmsg y (2) udpv6_recvmsg en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.0.6, no considera adecuadamente ceder un procesador, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (colgado del sistema) a través de sumas de comprobación incorrectas dentro de una inundación de paquetes UDP.
A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's networking implementation handled UDP packets with incorrect checksum values. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel, resulting in a denial of service on the system, or cause a denial of service in applications using the edge triggered epoll functionality.
