Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Sun Solaris versions 8 through 10
OpenSolaris (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is related to an integer overflow in the
aio suspend function when 32-bit mode is enabled. This allows local users to cause a denial of service, resulting in a system panic, by providing a large integer value in the second argument, also known as the nent argument.Recommendations
For Sun Solaris versions 8 through 10, consider applying configuration changes to restrict the use of the
aio suspend function until a fix is available.
For OpenSolaris, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.Fix
