Multiple vulnerabilities in the IGMP functionality for Linux kernel 2.4.22 to 2.4.28, and 2.6.x to 2.6.9, allow local and remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via (1) the ip_mc_source function, which decrements a counter to -1, or (2) the igmp_marksources function, which does not properly validate IGMP message parameters and performs an out-of-bounds read.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2004-1137 is an old Linux kernel IGMP flaw that could let attackers crash affected systems or potentially run code in the kernel. The cited affected range is Linux 2.4.22 through 2.4.28 and 2.6.x through 2.6.9. Modern systems are unlikely to be affected, but legacy appliances and unmanaged servers deserve attention. Exposure is mainly legacy Linux deployments, embedded systems, appliances, or forgotten servers still running the listed 2.4 or early 2.6 kernels. The source bundle does not identify specific downstream product versions beyond historical distribution advisories. Treat this as a legacy-system risk, not a broad modern Linux emergency. Escalate if critical infrastructure, appliances, or internet-adjacent systems still run the affected kernels. Otherwise, handle through legacy asset discovery and patch assurance. Mitigation focus: Inventory Linux hosts and identify kernel versions.; Prioritize systems running Linux 2.4.22-2.4.28 or 2.6.x-2.6.9.; Apply vendor kernel updates referenced by distribution advisories..
