Race condition in ip_vs_conn_flush in Linux 2.6 before 2.6.13 and 2.4 before 2.4.32-pre2, when running on SMP systems, allows local users to cause a denial of service (null dereference) by causing a connection timer to expire while the connection table is being flushed before the appropriate lock is acquired.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2005-3274 is an old Linux kernel denial-of-service flaw. On SMP systems using IPVS load-balancing code, a local user could trigger a race condition that crashes the kernel through a null dereference. The sources describe local impact, not remote compromise or data theft. Exposure is most plausible on legacy Linux 2.4 or early 2.6 systems, especially SMP hosts using IPVS. Modern supported distributions are unlikely to be affected unless running old custom kernels or unsupported appliances. Treat as a legacy infrastructure cleanup item unless affected systems still support critical services. Prioritize internet-facing load-balancers, shared hosting, and systems with untrusted local users. Mitigation focus: Confirm affected hosts against vendor advisories for their distribution.; Upgrade to vendor-fixed kernel packages or fixed kernel branches.; Retire unsupported Linux 2.4 or early 2.6 systems where possible..
