paul Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel: The minix filesystem code allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via a malformed minix file stream (CVE-2006-6058). An integer underflow in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted SKB length value in a runt IEEE 802.11 frame when the IEEE80211_STYPE_QOS_DATA flag is set (CVE-2007-4997).
