Descriptions
The iowarrior_write function in drivers/usb/misc/iowarrior.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37 does not properly allocate memory, which might allow local users to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, and consequently cause a denial of service or gain privileges, via a long report.
La función iowarrior_write en drivers/usb/misc/iowarrior.c en el kernel Linux anterior a v2.6.37 no asigna memoria adecuadamente, lo que permite a usuarios locales desencadenar un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica, y en consecuencia provocar una denegación de servicio o obtener privilegios a través de un informe largo.
