The kernel of Solaris contains a vulnerability in the code that handles SYS_kaio syscall requests on systems in 32 bit mode. Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in local denial of service attacks (system crash due to a kernel panic). As all Solaris Zones (Containers) share the same kernel it is possible to crash the whole system (all Zones) even if the vulnerability is triggered in an unprivileged non-global zone. This kernel vulnerability can be exploited by an unprivileged local user.

The kernel of Solaris contains a vulnerability in the code that handles SIOCGTUNPARAM IOCTL requests. Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in:

1) local denial of service attacks (system crash due to a kernel panic), or

[ As all Solaris Zones (Containers) share the same kernel it is possible
to crash the whole system (all Zones) even if the vulnerability is
triggered in an unprivileged non-global zone. ]

2) local execution of arbitrary code at the kernel level (complete system compromise) on x86 platforms

[ As all Solaris Zones (Containers) share the same kernel it is possible
to escape from unprivileged non-global zones and compromise other non-
global zones or the global zone. ]

The issue can be triggered by sending a specially crafted IOCTL request to the kernel.
