** Description changed: - The skb argument to cipso_v4_validate() is NULL when called via the - setsockopt() syscall. An local user able to set CIPSO IP options on the - socket could use this flaw to crash the system. + The cipso_v4_validate function in net/ipv4/cipso_ipv4.c in the Linux + kernel before 3.4.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service + (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified + other impact via an IPOPT_CIPSO IP_OPTIONS setsockopt system call. Break-Fix: - 89d7ae34cdda4195809a5a987f697a517a2a3177
