+	<h1>Problem Description:</h1>
+	<p>When handling a 32-bit sendmsg(2) call, the compat32 subsystem copies the
+	control message to be transmitted (if any) into kernel memory, and adjusts
+	alignment of control message headers.  The code which performs this work
+	contained a time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) vulnerability which allows a
+	malicious userspace program to modify control message headers after they were
+	validated by the kernel.</p>
+	<h1>Impact:</h1>
+	<p>The TOCTOU bug can be exploited by an unprivileged malicious userspace program
+	to trigger privilege escalation.</p>
