Description:   Opened: 2005-01-17 07:00 0000
CAN-2004-1333
Integer overflow in the vc_resize function in the Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 before 2.6.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a short new screen value, which leads to a buffer overflow.

`Kumba: It seems mips-sources-2.4.27, 2.4.28, 2.6.8.1 and 2.6.9 still need this
fix; anything >= 2.6.10 already includes it.

openmosix-sources also needs patching; CCing cluster.
