CVE-2005-3857
First published: Sun Nov 27 2005(Updated: )
The time_out_leases function in locks.c for Linux kernel before 2.6.15-rc3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel log message consumption) by causing a large number of broken leases, which is recorded to the log using the printk function.
