Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.39.3
Description
The issue is related to the
inet diag bc audit function in the Linux kernel, which does not properly audit INET DIAG bytecode. This allows local users to cause a denial of service, specifically a kernel infinite loop, by sending crafted INET DIAG REQ BYTECODE instructions in a netlink message. For example, an INET DIAG BC JMP instruction with a zero yes value can trigger this issue.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.39.3, update to version 2.6.39.3 or later to resolve the issue.
