** Description changed: - Placeholder + The epoll implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier does not + properly traverse a tree of epoll file descriptors, which allows local + users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted + application that makes epoll_create and epoll_ctl system calls.
