Descriptions

The ati_remote2_probe function in drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.

La función ati_remote2_probe en drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.5.1 permite a atacantes físicamente próximos provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero NULL y caída de sistema) a través de un valor de dispositivos finales manipulado en un descriptor de dispositivo USB.

Linux kernel version 3.10.0-229.20.1.el7.x86_64 crashes on presentation of a buggy USB device requiring the ati_remote2 driver.
