CVSS v2.0

6.4

Medium

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel version 2.6
Description: The issue is related to the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) driver in the Linux kernel, which does not properly check the DMA lock. This could allow remote attackers or local users to cause a denial of service, resulting in an X Server crash, and possibly modify the video output.
Recommendations: For Linux kernel version 2.6, consider applying a patch or updating to a newer version that properly checks the DMA lock to prevent the denial of service and potential video output modification.
