| Summary: | The semop function in the NetBSD kernel fails to properly handle bounds checking with unsigned values. If stack memory is executable, a local attacker could pass a large 'nsops' value stored in the user memory and copied to the processÂ’s kernel stack. In turn, this could allow the attacker to cause a kernel trap, call arbitrary kernel cokde, or execute arbitrary code on the system. | ||||||
