CVE-2005-2100

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4

Description: The issue is related to the rw vm function in usercopy.c, which does not perform proper bounds checking. This allows local users to cause a denial of service, resulting in a system crash.

Recommendations: For Linux kernel in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, consider applying a patch that fixes the bounds checking issue in the rw vm function as a permanent solution. As a temporary workaround, restrict local user privileges to minimize the risk of exploitation.
