CVE-2010-1085 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1085):
  The azx_position_ok function in hda_intel.c in Linux kernel
  2.6.33-rc4 and earlier, when running on the AMD780V chip set, allows
  context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via
  unknown manipulations that trigger a divide-by-zero error.
