Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 4.2.3

Description The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to a system crash, by utilizing a socket that was not properly bound. This is due to a problem in the rds conn create function.

Recommendations For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.2.3, update to version 4.2.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the rds conn create function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
