CVE-2011-2693

Published: 8 June 2013

The perf subsystem in the kernel package 2.6.32-122.el6.x86_64 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 does not properly handle NMIs, which might allow local users to cause a denial of service (excessive log messages) via unspecified vectors.

this is not RH-specific.  Fix has been committed long ago and all the
series already contain the fix (except for Lucid, which isn't affected)
