| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
FreeBSD versions prior to 5.3
NetBSD versions prior to 1.4
OpenBSD versions prior to 2.7
Description
The issue is related to the shmat system call in the System V Shared Memory interface. It does not properly decrement a shared memory segment's reference count when the vm map find function fails. This could allow local users to gain read or write access to a portion of kernel memory and potentially gain privileges.

For FreeBSD versions prior to 5.3, update to version 5.3 or later.
For NetBSD versions prior to 1.4, update to version 1.4 or later.
For OpenBSD versions prior to 2.7, update to version 2.7 or later.
