The shmctl function in Linux 2.6.9 and earlier allows local users to unlock the memory of other processes, which could cause sensitive memory to be swapped to disk, which could allow it to be read by other users once it has been released.

The linux-2.4.21-mlock.patch in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 does not properly maintain the mlock page count when one process unlocks pages that belong to another process, which allows local users to mlock more memory than specified by the rlimit.

The elf_core_dump function in binfmt_elf.c for Linux kernel 2.x.x to 2.2.27-rc2, 2.4.x to 2.4.31-pre1, and 2.6.x to 2.6.12-rc4 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via an ELF binary that, in certain conditions involving the create_elf_tables function, causes a negative length argument to pass a signed integer comparison, leading to a buffer overflow.
