**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Linux kernel versions prior to 4.3.6 **Description** The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service by attempting to trigger use of in-kernel hash algorithms for a socket that has received zero bytes of data. This is related to the hash accept function in crypto/algif hash.c. **Recommendations** For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.3.6, update to version 4.3.6 or later to resolve the issue.
