Description:   Opened: 2005-04-01 03:18 0000 
From Ubuntu Security Notice USN-103-1

A Denial of Service vulnerability was found in the tmpfs driver, which
is commonly used to mount RAM disks below /dev/shm and /tmp. The
shm_nopage() did not properly verify its address argument, which could
be exploited by a local user to cause a kernel crash with invalid
addresses.
