What is CVE-2007-2998?

The Pascal run-time library on OpenVMS for Integrity Servers and Alpha versions is susceptible to a vulnerability that fails to properly restore the Program Counter (PC) and Processor Status Longword (PSL) values. This oversight allows local users to execute specific Pascal codes that can trigger a denial of service, causing the system to crash. It is essential for users of OpenVMS to be aware of this vulnerability and implement necessary protections.
