Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Linux Kernel (Operating System) (version unknown). Affected by this issue is the function rds_rdma_pages. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a numeric error vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-189. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Integer overflow in the rds_rdma_pages function in net/rds/rdma.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted iovec struct in a Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) request, which triggers a buffer overflow.

The weakness was published 01/10/2011 by Thomas Pollet (Website). The advisory is shared for download at xforce.iss.net. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2010-3865 since 10/08/2010. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack needs to be approached locally. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $0-$5k (estimation calculated on 10/11/2021).
