| Date Notified: | 2004-03-10 |
| Date Updated: | |
| Statement Date: | |
| Status Summary: | Vulnerable |
Vendor StatementNo supported release of Openwall GNU/*/Linux (Owl) was affected by this vulnerability as of the time it was made public. We had the bug proactively fixed in Owl 1.1 release (Linux kernel 2.4.23-ow2), not realizing its full security impact at the time.
Although those are no longer a part of Owl (not in Owl 1.1), we continue to maintain security hardening patches for Linux 2.2.x kernels and make them available for the public. Linux 2.2.x was affected by a variation of this vulnerability and thus, as a service to the community, we had included a workaround in Linux 2.2.25-ow2 patch. Linux 2.2.26 now includes the same change.Vendor InformationThe vendor has not provided us with any further information regarding this vulnerability.
AddendumThe CERT/CC has no additional comments at this time.
If you have feedback, comments, or additional information about this vulnerability, please send us
