Last modified

CVE-2005-3807 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Memory leak in the VFS file lease handling in locks.c in Linux kernels 2.6.10 to 2.6.15 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) via certain Samba activities that cause an fasync entry to be re-allocated by the fcntl_setlease function after the fasync queue has already been cleaned by the locks_delete_lock function.. EPSS estimates a 0.74% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
