Last modified

CVE-2007-1357 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The atalk_sum_skb function in AppleTalk for Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.21, and possibly 2.4.x, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an AppleTalk frame that is shorter than the specified length, which triggers a BUG_ON call when an attempt is made to perform a checksum.. EPSS estimates a 13.53% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
