CVE-2009-0029 (GCVE-0-2009-0029)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2009-01-15 17:00 – Updated: 2024-08-07 04:17
VLAI
Summary
The ABI in the Linux kernel 2.6.28 and earlier on s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips 64-bit platforms requires that a 32-bit argument in a 64-bit register was properly sign extended when sent from a user-mode application, but cannot verify this, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted system call.
Severity
