Linux 2.2 DoS Attack 270

Posted by justin++ on Tuesday June 01, 1999 @06:36PM from the ooh-dats-bad dept.

A small bug in the Linux networking code has been found, and just as quickly patched. The bug affects all Linux 2.2 kernels, and can be fixed by removing "kfree_skb(skb);" from around line 455 of linux/net/ipv4/ip_options.c. Big thanks to Alan Cox on this one.
