CVE-2011-4097
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—
Desbordamiento de entero en la función oom_badness en mm/oom_kill.c en el núcleo de Linux anteriores a v3.1.8 en plataformas de 64 bits, que permite a usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria y terminación del proceso) mediante el uso de una cierta cantidad grande de memoria.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
