Is it really a vulnerability? All the code does is read 4 bytes from a
proc file, and reads that into address 0 in the process, which will very
likely kill it unless that page is mapped somehow, which the code does
not make any attempt to. Is the OP mistaking a crashed userlevel
process with a system-wide crash?
Cheers,
