Description:   Opened: 2004-07-21 01:41 0000 
Just noticed this in the SecurityFocus newsletter:

The Equalizer Load-balancer for serial network interfaces (eql.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service via a non-existent device name that triggers a null dereference.

------- Comment #1 From Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2004-07-21 04:30:21 0000 ------- 
All done; now I'm adding on the externally maintained 2.6 sources which need
patching for this issue:

gentoo-dev-sources - Adding gregkh...
hardened-dev-sources - Adding Gentoo/Hardened team...
hppa-dev-sources - Adding GMSoft...
mips-sources - Adding `Kumba...
rsbac-dev-sources - Adding kang...
pegasos-dev-sources - Adding dholm...

If you need a patch for this issue look in
${PORTDIR}/sys-kernel/{aa,ck,...}-sources/files.

Everyone is set, AFAICT...

This one was not included in the kernel GLSA 200408-24, but it is apparently covered by it.

plasmaroo: please comment on the GLSA need.

------- Comment #9 From Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2004-09-13 08:29:52 0000 ------- 
This should have been covered by GLSA 200408-24 as Koon has mentioned, so I'm
closing this as FIXED.
