Detail

The die_if_kernel function in arch/ia64/kernel/unaligned.c in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.15.6, possibly when compiled with certain versions of gcc, has the "noreturn" attribute set, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by causing user faults on Itanium systems.

Id Description
23660 Linux Kernel die_if_kernel() Function Unspecified Return Issue

The Linux kernel contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered because the 'die_if_kernel()' function is labeled with the 'noreturn' attribute. On Intel ia64 systems, this can lead to a kernel panic when user faults are caused, which will result in loss of availability for the platform.
