Title
DSA-1494-2 linux-2.6 -- missing access checks
Description
The vmsplice system call did not properly verify address arguments passed by user space processes, which allowed local attackers to overwrite arbitrary kernel memory, gaining root privileges (CVE-2008-0010, CVE-2008-0600). In the vserver-enabled kernels, a missing access check on certain symlinks in /proc enabled local attackers to access resources in other vservers (CVE-2008-0163). The old stable distribution (sarge) is not affected by this problem.

Comment
: The copy_from_user_mmap_sem function in fs/splice.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.22 through 2.6.24 does not validate a certain userspace pointer before dereference, which allow local users to read from arbitrary kernel memory locations.

Comment
: The vmsplice_to_pipe function in Linux kernel 2.6.17 through 2.6.24.1 does not validate a certain userspace pointer before dereference, which allows local users to gain root privileges via crafted arguments in a vmsplice system call, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-0009 and CVE-2008-0010.
