CVE ID:	CVE-2010-4346
Description:	The install_special_mapping function in mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc6 does not make an expected security_file_mmap function call, which allows local users to bypass intended mmap_min_addr restrictions and possibly conduct NULL pointer dereference attacks via a crafted assembly-language application.
Test IDs:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.69431   1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.69100   1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68992   1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68872
