| Resumen |
A full understanding of DoS vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel is important for the development of applicable solutions. Most part of the work on DoS vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel focuses on designing and implementing detection, prevention or recovery tools for the kernel, but little researches tries to identify the underlying causes. Because of that, despite all research efforts, this type of vulnerabilities still prevail in major software like the Linux kernel. Partially, this is due to the absence of a source code perspective taxonomy to address all types of DoS vulnerabilities. Therefore, this research presents a taxonomy for DoS vulnerabilities through an analysis and identification of characteristics.
