-Candidate: CVE-2010-3079
-Description:
- kernel/trace/ftrace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35.5, when debugfs is enabled,
- does not properly handle interaction between mutex possession and llseek operations,
- which allows local users to cause a denial of service (outage of all function tracing
- files) via an lseek call on a file descriptor associated with the set_ftrace_filter file.
