--- title: "CVE-2010-3865\n | Ubuntu" description: Ubuntu is an open source software operating system that runs from the desktop, to the cloud, to all your internet connected things. url: https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2010-3865?format=md keywords: index, follow --- # CVE-2010-3865 Publication date 10 January 2011 Last updated 24 July 2024 --- Ubuntu priority **Medium** [Why this priority?](https://ubuntu.com/security/cves/about#priority ) Toggle side navigation ## Description Integer overflow in the rds\_rdma\_pages function in net/rds/rdma.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted iovec struct in a Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) request, which triggers a buffer overflow. ### From the Ubuntu Security Team Thomas Pollet discovered that the RDS network protocol did not check certain iovec buffers. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system or possibly execute arbitrary code as the root user. ## Status Show unmaintained releases | Package | Ubuntu Release | Status | | --- | --- | --- | | linux | 11.04 natty | Not affected | | 10.10 maverick | Fixed 2.6.35-27.47 | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Fixed 2.6.32-29.58 | | 9.10 karmic | Fixed 2.6.31-22.73 | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not affected | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not in release | | linux-ec2 | 11.04 natty | Not in release | | 10.10 maverick | Ignored end of life | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Fixed 2.6.32-313.26 | | 9.10 karmic | Fixed 2.6.31-307.27 | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not in release | | linux-fsl-imx51 | 11.04 natty | Not in release | | 10.10 maverick | Not in release | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Fixed 2.6.31-609.26 | | 9.10 karmic | Fixed 2.6.31-112.30 | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not in release | | linux-lts-backport-maverick | 11.04 natty | Not in release | | 10.10 maverick | Not in release | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Fixed 2.6.35-28.50~lucid1 | | 9.10 karmic | Not in release | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not in release | | linux-lts-backport-natty | 11.04 natty | Not in release | | 10.10 maverick | Not in release | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Not affected | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | linux-mvl-dove | 11.04 natty | Not in release | | 10.10 maverick | Fixed 2.6.32-415.32 | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Fixed 2.6.32-215.31 | | 9.10 karmic | Ignored end of life | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not in release | | linux-source-2.6.15 | 11.04 natty | Not in release | | 10.10 maverick | Not in release | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Not in release | | 9.10 karmic | Not in release | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not affected | | linux-ti-omap4 | 11.04 natty | Not affected | | 10.10 maverick | Fixed 2.6.35-903.22 | | 10.04 LTS lucid | Not in release | | 9.10 karmic | Not in release | | 8.04 LTS hardy | Not in release | | 6.06 LTS dapper | Not in release | --- * [How can I get the fixes?](https://ubuntu.com/security/cves/about#security) * [What do statuses mean?](https://ubuntu.com/security/cves/about#statuses) * [Patch details](https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2010-3865?format=md#patch-details) ### Patch details For informational purposes only.
