2.1 LOW — AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
Weaknesses
CWE-787

Description

The TSB I-TLB load implementation in arch/sparc/kernel/tsb.S in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33 on the SPARC platform does not properly obtain the value of a certain _PAGE_EXEC_4U bit and consequently does not properly implement a non-executable stack, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to exploit stack-based buffer overflows via a crafted application.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (< 2.6.33) • debian debian linux 5.0
