Description:
The Linux kernel is prone to multiple memory access vulnerabilities, including:
        - A vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to read
        arbitrary
        memory locations. 
        - A vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to write to
        arbitrary
        memory locations.
        
        An attacker can exploit these issues to read and write to
        arbitrary
        memory locations on the affected computer.
        
        This issue affects Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.24.1.
