Description Prasad J Pandit 2014-06-20 09:10:48 EDT 
Linux kernel built with the system-call auditing support(CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL)
for 32-bit platforms is vulnerable to a crash caused by erroneous handling of
bad system call numerals. It occurs during syscall(2) calls, if system-call
auditing is enabled on the system.

An unprivileged user/process could use this flaw to crash the system kernel
resulting in DoS.
