Description Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-23 02:08:01 UTC 
In Ubuntu's USN-219-1:

Patrick McHardy noticed a logic error in the network address
translation (NAT) connection tracker. A remote attacker could exploit
this by causing two packets for the same protocol to be NATed at the
same time, which resulted in a kernel crash. (CVE-2005-3275)

Adding 2.4 maintainers; {mips,openmosix,rsbac,xbox}-sources.

Toggle status.
Comment 4 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-11 10:24:44 UTC 
MIPS, OpenMOSIX and rsbac -- a patch is still needed which is supplied on this bug... Let me know if there are any problems with doing so.
Comment 5 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-18 13:36:55 UTC 
All resolved, closing...
