CVE-2013-4162

Kernel: net: panic while pushing pending data out of a IPv6 socket with UDP_CORK enabled

Published Jul 28, 2013 CVSS 2.0 · 4.7 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The udp_v6_push_pending_frames function in net/ipv6/udp.c in the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.10.3 makes an incorrect function call for pending data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and system crash) via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a setsockopt system call.
