Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-086

Posted Jun 1, 2012

Authored by Mandriva | Site mandriva.com

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-086 - acpid.c in acpid before 2.0.9 does not properly handle a situation in which a process has connected to acpid.socket but is not reading any data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (daemon hang) via a crafted application that performs a connect system call but no read system calls. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
