Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in the private wireless extensions IOCTL implementation in wlan_hdd_wext.c in the WLAN (aka Wi-Fi) driver for the Linux kernel 3.x and 4.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, allows attackers to gain privileges via a crafted application that establishes a packet filter.

Desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica en la implementación de extensiones de wireless privadas IOCTL en wlan_hdd_wext.c en el controlador WLAN (también conocido como Wi-Fi) para el kernel de Linux 3.x y 4.x, según se utiliza en Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices y otros productos, permite a atacantes obtener privilegios a través de una aplicación manipulada que establece un filtro de paquetes.

The Linux prima WLAN driver suffers from a heap overflow vulnerability.
