Unspecified vulnerability in ia32el (aka the IA 32 emulation functionality) before 7042_7022-0.4.2 in SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 10 SP2 on Itanium IA64 machines allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a 32-bit x86 application.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2009-2707 affects SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP2 on Itanium IA64 systems using ia32el, the IA-32 emulation feature. A local user running a 32-bit x86 application could crash the system. Business impact is availability loss on a narrow, legacy platform. Exposure is likely limited to legacy SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP2 deployments on Itanium IA64 hardware with ia32el installed or enabled. Modern non-IA64 Linux systems are not identified as affected in the source bundle. Prioritize this if your environment still runs SLE 10 SP2 on Itanium IA64 for business-critical workloads. Otherwise, urgency is low because the affected platform is narrow and exploitation requires local access. Mitigation focus: Inventory SLE 10 SP2 IA64 systems and check whether ia32el is present.; Update ia32el to 7042_7022-0.4.2 or later where vendor packages are available.; Review SUSE and Novell advisory guidance for supported remediation details..
