Descriptions

A vulnerability was reported in the Open vSwitch sub-component in the Linux Kernel. The flaw occurs when a recursive operation of code push recursively calls into the code block. The OVS module does not validate the stack depth, pushing too many frames and causing a stack overflow. As a result, this can lead to a crash or other related issues.

Se informó una vulnerabilidad en el subcomponente Open vSwitch del kernel de Linux. La falla ocurre cuando una operación recursiva de inserción de código llama recursivamente al bloque de código. El módulo OVS no valida la profundidad de la pila, lo que empuja demasiados fotogramas y provoca un desbordamiento de búfer en la región stack de la memoria. Como resultado, esto puede provocar un bloqueo u otros problemas relacionados.
