http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.25.5
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.25.6    CVE-2008-1673:
The asn1 implementation in (a) the Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.36.6 and 2.6
before 2.6.25.5, as used in the cifs and ip_nat_snmp_basic modules; and (b) the
gxsnmp package; does not properly validate length values during decoding of
ASN.1 BER data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(crash) or execute arbitrary code via (1) a length greater than the working
buffer, which can lead to an unspecified overflow; (2) an oid length of zero,
which can lead to an off-by-one error; or (3) an indefinite length for a
primitive encoding.    Bugs fixed:  224005 - pata_pcmcia fails  326411 - Freeze
