CVE-2010-0307: n/a vulnerability

CVE-2010-0307: The load_elf_binary function in fs/binfmt_elf.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32.8 on the x86_64 platform...

The load_elf_binary function in fs/binfmt_elf.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32.8 on the x86_64 platform does not ensure that the ELF interpreter is available before a call to the SET_PERSONALITY macro, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a 32-bit application that attempts to execute a 64-bit application and then triggers a segmentation fault, as demonstrated by amd64_killer, related to the flush_old_exec function.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2010-0307 is a Linux kernel flaw on x86_64 systems that lets a local user crash the system. It is an availability issue, not a remote takeover in the provided sources. The kernel fixed the issue before version 2.6.32.8, with major Linux vendors publishing advisories. Exposure is most relevant to older x86_64 Linux systems running kernels before 2.6.32.8 or vendor kernels missing the backported fix. Systems allowing local users or untrusted local code execution have higher practical exposure. Treat this as a legacy availability risk. It is not shown as remotely exploitable, but unpatched shared Linux systems could be crashed by local users. Patch or isolate affected systems during normal vulnerability management, escalating where uptime or tenant isolation is critical. Mitigation focus: Apply the relevant kernel update from the Linux distribution vendor.; Confirm kernels include the 2.6.32.8 fix or a vendor backport.; Prioritize multi-user, shared hosting, and untrusted workload systems..
