CVE-2010-1085
Description
From CVE.org
The azx_position_ok function in hda_intel.c in Linux kernel 2.6.33-rc4 and earlier, when running on the AMD780V chip set, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown manipulations that trigger a divide-by-zero error.
Statement
This issue did not affect the versions of the Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and Red Hat Enterprise MRG as they did not include the affected function. A future update in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5 may address this flaw.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
