Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.34
Description
The issue is related to the socket implementation in the Linux kernel, which does not properly manage a backlog of received packets. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by consuming memory through sending a large amount of network traffic.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.34, update to version 2.6.34 or later to resolve the issue.
