Last modified
CVE-2009-3620 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The ATI Rage 128 (aka r128) driver in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-git11 does not properly verify Concurrent Command Engine (CCE) state initialization, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified ioctl calls.. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
