CVE-2010-3880
Last modified
CVE-2010-3880 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. net/ipv4/inet_diag.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 does not properly audit INET_DIAG bytecode, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel infinite loop) via crafted INET_DIAG_REQ_BYTECODE instructions in a netlink message that contains multiple attribute elements, as demonstrated by INET_DIAG_BC_JMP instructions.. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
