** Description changed: - Local DOS fixed in commit 77c1090 "net: fix infinite loop in - __skb_recv_datagram()"? An unprivileged local user can easily trigger - this bug and lock-up the system. + The __skb_recv_datagram function in net/core/datagram.c in the Linux + kernel before 3.8 does not properly handle the MSG_PEEK flag with zero- + length data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service + (infinite loop and system hang) via a crafted application. Break-Fix: - 77c1090f94d1b0b5186fb13a1b71b47b1343f87f
