CVE-2015-7799
Linux Kernel < 4.2.2 - Denial of Service via PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl Call
Title source: llmDescription
The slhc_init function in drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.3 does not ensure that certain slot numbers are valid, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call.
