1) Configuration

EUVDB-ID: #VU95749

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2007-3380

CWE-ID: CWE-16 - Configuration

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The Distributed Lock Manager (DLM) in the cluster manager for Linux kernel 2.6.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of lock services) by connecting to the DLM port, which probably prevents other processes from accessing the service.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's repository.

Vulnerable software versions

Linux kernel: All versions
