NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream systemtap-testsuite package and not the systemtap-testsuite package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:5 relevant fixed versions and status.

Multiple integer signedness errors in the (1) __get_argv and (2) __get_compat_argv functions in tapset/aux_syscalls.stp in SystemTap 1.1 allow local users to cause a denial of service (script crash, or system crash or hang) via a process with a large number of arguments, leading to a buffer overflow.
