CVE-2007-3105 (GCVE-0-2007-3105)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2007-07-27 21:00 – Updated: 2024-08-07 14:05
VLAI
Summary
Stack-based buffer overflow in the random number generator (RNG) implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 might allow local root users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges by setting the default wakeup threshold to a value greater than the output pool size, which triggers writing random numbers to the stack by the pool transfer function involving "bound check ordering". NOTE: this issue might only cross privilege boundaries in environments that have granular assignment of privileges for root.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
