Detail

The do_tcp_setsockopt function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 does not properly restrict TCP_MAXSEG (aka MSS) values, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a setsockopt call that specifies a small value, leading to a divide-by-zero error or incorrect use of a signed integer.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
69241 Linux Kernel TCP MSS Divide-by-zero DoS

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when a user program passes a malformed TCP_MAXSEG value to tcp_select_initial_window, causing a divide-by-zero, resulting in loss of availability for the system.
