CVE-2006-5824 (GCVE-0-2006-5824)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2006-11-09 11:00 – Updated: 2024-08-07 20:04
VLAI
Summary
Integer overflow in the ffs_rdextattr function in FreeBSD 6.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) and trigger a heap-based buffer overflow via a crafted UFS filesystem, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-5679. NOTE: a third party states that this issue does not cross privilege boundaries in FreeBSD because only root may mount a filesystem.
