i don't even have to patch the kernel. i tried with 2.6.11-rc5-bk2, same
thing. but (only!) downgrading ppp_2.4.2 (current is ppp_2.4.3) did the trick.

Weird. Maybe you hit something like #298657 and the other similar bugs.

Okay. Do I correctly understand that kernel patch + downgrade solves
your problem?
And, if you have *just* the kernel patch, /usr/sbin/pppd hangs, but
doesn't crash the system?
Thanks,

hi again,
sorry for the delay, but the "bug" triggers only when the remote peer
disconnects me - and it does it only once a day.

yes i have*now*. obviously this was a security issue (CAN-2005-0384)
and i *guess* that's why the issue was not discussed in public. what pity
and what a waste of time in tra
reassign 299875 kernel
retitle 299875 CAN-2005-0384: Remote Linux DoS on ppp servers
tag 299875 patch security
thanks
Paul Mackerras says that this bug affects all kernels (2.4 and 2.6) and
can be easily triggered remotely, but is only a CPU DoS.
from 2.6.11.4:
diff -Nru a/drivers/net/ppp_async.
Including a patch from kernel.org. Given the size of the patch, you
may not trust it, but that's what I got ..
http://www.kernel.org/diff/diffview.cgi?file=%2Fpub%2Flinux%2Fkernel%2Fv2.6%2Fpatch-2.6.11.4.bz2;z=15
If I understand the situation correctly, this needs to be reassigned
and cloned to
I assume that you have seen this:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.11.4
If not .. tag patch:) In less than 100 lines, even!

hello pppeople,
i've encountered serious problems with pppd and days of monitoring the

tell me otherwise and i'll happily forward t
