CVE ID: | CVE-2017-5669 |
Description: | The do_shmat function in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.12 does not restrict the address calculated by a certain rounding operation, which allows local users to map page zero, and consequently bypass a protection mechanism that exists for the mmap system call, by making crafted shmget and shmat system calls in a privileged context. |
Test IDs: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.890849 |
