| Description |
| net/core/net_namespace.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.32 and earlier does
not properly handle a high rate of creation and cleanup of network
namespaces, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (memory consumption) via requests to a daemon that
requires a separate namespace per connection, as demonstrated by
vsftpd.
