Description:
 drivers/firmware/dell_rbu.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.27.13, and
 2.6.28.x before 2.6.28.2, allows local users to cause a denial of service
 (system crash) via a read system call that specifies zero bytes from the
 (1) image_type or (2) packet_size file in /sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/.
Ubuntu-Description:
 The Dell platform device did not correctly validate user parameters.  A
 local attacker could perform specially crafted reads to crash the system,
 leading to a denial of service.
