AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions 2.x.x through 2.2.27-rc2 Linux kernel versions 2.4.x through 2.4.31-pre1 Linux kernel versions 2.6.x through 2.6.12-rc4

Description: The issue allows local users to execute arbitrary code via an ELF binary. This occurs under certain conditions involving the create elf tables function, where a negative length argument passes a signed integer comparison, leading to a buffer overflow.

Recommendations: For Linux kernel versions 2.x.x through 2.2.27-rc2, update to a version later than 2.2.27-rc2 to resolve the issue. For Linux kernel versions 2.4.x through 2.4.31-pre1, update to a version later than 2.4.31-pre1 to resolve the issue. For Linux kernel versions 2.6.x through 2.6.12-rc4, update to a version later than 2.6.12-rc4 to resolve the issue.
