CVE-2007-2875

Publication date 11 June 2007

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Unknown

Why this priority?

Integer underflow in the cpuset_tasks_read function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.20.13, and 2.6.21.x before 2.6.21.4, when the cpuset filesystem is mounted, allows local users to obtain kernel memory contents by using a large offset when reading the /dev/cpuset/tasks file.
