Title:Security Vulnerability in the Solaris IP(7p) Implementation, Related to Minor Number Allocation, may Lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) Condition
Description:The IP implementation in Sun Solaris 8 through 10, and OpenSolaris before snv_82, uses an improper arena when allocating minor numbers for sockets, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (32-bit application failure and login outage) by opening a large number of sockets.
