Buffer overflow in the ecryptfs_uid_hash macro in fs/ecryptfs/messaging.c in the eCryptfs subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 might allow local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash) via unspecified vectors. kernel: ecryptfs_uid_hash() buffer overflow The Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and Red Hat Enterprise MRG did not include support for eCryptfs, and therefore are not affected by this issue. A future update in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 may address this flaw. This was addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 via https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010-0723.html. The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.
