Description Mark J. Cox 2004-02-16 08:48:22 EST 
Paul Starzetz discovered a flaw in return value checking in mremap()
in the Linux kernel versions 2.4.24 and previous that may allow a
local attacker to gain root privileges. No exploit is currently
available; however this issue is exploitable. 

Affected: 2.1AS 2.1ES 2.1WS
