Detail
Product: Solaris 8 Operating System Solaris 9 Operating System Solaris 10 Operating System OpenSolaris A security vulnerability in the Solaris kernel related to the interaction of the filesystem and virtual memory subsystems may allow a local unprivileged user to cause the system to slow down and eventually cease operating, thereby resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). State: Resolved First released: 17-Aug-2009 |

Title: | Security Vulnerability in the Solaris Kernel Involving the Interaction of the Filesystem and Virtual Memory Subsystems | ||
Description: | The kernel in Sun Solaris 8, 9, and 10, and OpenSolaris before snv_103, does not properly handle interaction between the filesystem and virtual-memory implementations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock and system halt) via vectors involving mmap and write operations on the same file. | ||
