1.7 LOW — AV:L/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:P

Description

The procfs implementation in NetBSD-current before 20061023, NetBSD 3.0 and 3.0.1 before 20061024, and NetBSD 2.x before 20061029 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) by attempting to access /emul/linux/proc/0/stat on a procfs filesystem that was mounted with mount_procfs -o linux, which results in a NULL pointer dereference.

Affected configurations

• netbsd netbsd 2.0 • netbsd netbsd 2.1 • netbsd netbsd 3.0 • netbsd netbsd 3.0.1
