FKIE_CVE-2010-4668
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2011-01-03 20:00 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:25
Severity
Summary
The blk_rq_map_user_iov function in block/blk-map.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a zero-length I/O request in a device ioctl to a SCSI device, related to an unaligned map. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-4163.
