Last modified

CVE-2005-0001 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Race condition in the page fault handler (fault.c) for Linux kernel 2.2.x to 2.2.7, 2.4 to 2.4.29, and 2.6 to 2.6.10, when running on multiprocessor machines, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via concurrent threads that share the same virtual memory space and simultaneously request stack expansion.. EPSS estimates a 0.50% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
