Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: SELinux versions 2.6.x through 2.6.9

Description: A race condition exists in the handling of SOCK SEQPACKET unix domain sockets, specifically in the sock dgram sendmsg function, allowing local users to cause a denial of service by crashing the kernel.
