Discussion

Linux Kernel Reliable Datagram Sockets 'rds_cmsg_rdma_args()' Local Integer Overflow Vulnerability

The Linux kernel is prone to a local integer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly implement Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) protocol.

Local attackers can exploit this issue to run arbitrary code with elevated privileges. Failed exploit attempts may crash the affected kernel, denying service to legitimate users.
