The Linux kernel is prone to a local denial-of-service vulnerability.

Attackers can exploit this issue to cause the affected kernel to crash, denying service to legitimate users.

Versions prior to Linux kernel 2.6.33-rc6 are vulnerable.

NOTE: This issue can be exploited only on 64-bit architectures. Core dumps must be enabled.
