Descriptions

Integer signedness error in the vt console driver (formerly Newcons) in FreeBSD 9.3 before p10 and 10.1 before p6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly gain privileges via a negative value in a VT_WAITACTIVE ioctl call, which triggers an array index error and out-of-bounds kernel memory access.

Error en propiedad signedness de un entero, en el controlador de consola vt (anteriormente Newcons) en FreeBSD versión 9.3 y anteriores a p10 y versión 10.1 y anteriores a p6, permite a los usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo) y posiblemente alcanzar privilegios por medio de un valor negativo en una llamada ioctl VT_WAITACTIVE, que desencadena un error de índice de matriz y acceso a la memoria del kernel fuera de límites.
