Descriptions

The slhc_init function in drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.3 does not ensure that certain slot numbers are valid, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call.

La función slhc_init en drivers/net/slip/slhc.c en el kernel de Linux hasta la versión 4.2.3 no asegura que ciertos números de ranura sean válidos, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero NULL y caída del sistema) a través de una llamada PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl manipulada.
