Descriptions

An out-of-bounds memory write flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s Kid-friendly Wired Controller driver. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. It is in bigben_probe of drivers/hid/hid-bigbenff.c. The reason is incorrect assumption - bigben devices all have inputs. However, malicious devices can break this assumption, leaking to out-of-bound write.

Se ha encontrado un fallo de escritura en memoria fuera de límites en el Controlador con cable para Niños del kernel de Linux. Este fallo permite a un usuario local bloquear o potencialmente escalar sus privilegios en el sistema. Es encontrado en la función bigben_probe del archivo drivers/hid/hid-bigbenff.c. El motivo es una suposición incorrecta: todos los dispositivos bigben presentan entradas. Sin embargo, los dispositivos maliciosos pueden romper esta suposición, filtrando una escritura fuera de límites
