Vulnerability: The rds_ib_laddr_check function in net/rds/ib.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a bind system call for an RDS socket on a system that lacks RDS transports.
Vulnerability ID: CVE-2013-7339
CWE: CWE-476
Severity score: 6.9
Project: https://github.com/torvalds/linux
Published: 2014-03-24
File: net/rds/ib.c
Commit message: rds: prevent dereference of a NULL device

Binding might result in a NULL device, which is dereferenced
causing this BUG:
