CVE ID:	CVE-2010-4165
Description:	The do_tcp_setsockopt function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 does not properly restrict TCP_MAXSEG (aka MSS) values, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a setsockopt call that specifies a small value, leading to a divide-by-zero error or incorrect use of a signed integer.
Test IDs:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.69222   1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.69100   1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68872
