SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34331

VERIFY ADVISORY:

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Sun Solaris, which can be
exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of

"ufs_getpage()" and "ufs_putapage()" functions, which can be
exploited to cause all writes to a UFS filesystem to hang.
