Descriptions

The edge_bulk_in_callback function in drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel before 4.10.4 allows local users to obtain sensitive information (in the dmesg ringbuffer and syslog) from uninitialized kernel memory by using a crafted USB device (posing as an io_ti USB serial device) to trigger an integer underflow.

La función edge_bulk_in_callback en drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c en el kernel de Linux anterior a 4.10.4 permite a los usuarios locales obtener información sensible (en el dmesg ringbuffer y syslog) de la memoria del kernel no inicializada usando un dispositivo USB manipulado (aparentando ser un io_ti USB serie) para activar un desbordamiento inferior de enteros.
