Descriptions

The snd_compress_check_input function in sound/core/compress_offload.c in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.17 does not properly check for an integer overflow, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (insufficient memory allocation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted SNDRV_COMPRESS_SET_PARAMS ioctl call.

La función snd_compress_check_input en sound/core/compress_offload.c en el subsistema ALSA en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 3.17 no comprueba correctamente un desbordamiento de enteros, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (insuficiente asignación de memoría) o posiblemente tener otros impactos no especificados a través de una llamada SNDRV_COMPRESS_SET_PARAMS ioctl manipulada.
