The main function in tools/hv/hv_kvp_daemon.c in hypervkvpd, as distributed
in the Linux kernel before 3.8-rc1, allows local users to cause a denial of
service (daemon exit) via a crafted application that sends a Netlink
message. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for
CVE-2012-2669.
