| Resumen |
The DoS vulnerabilities have become the most common type
of vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. In the last years, researches have focused on the design and implementation of detection and prevention tools of these vulnerabilities; however, despite all efforts they still prevail. This fact reveals the lack of a complete understanding of the causes and characteristics of such vulnerabilities. Because of that, we propose a faceted taxonomy, designed through the analysis and characterization of known DoS vulnerabilities to help developers and researchers organize
and understand the records of actual vulnerabilities and then, focus their efforts to remove and prevent the introduction of new vulnerabilities through the development of applicable solutions.
