Hi!
Description: The Linux kernel is prone to multiple memory access
vulnerabilities, including:
- A vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to read
arbitrary
memory locations.
- A vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to write to
arbitrary
memory locations.
An attacker can exploit these issues to read and write to
arbitrary
memory locations on the affected computer.
This issue affects Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.24.1.
Tested on current Fedora kernel (2.6.23.14-115.fc8) and it give
me root!
