Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel (Operating System) (the affected version is unknown) and classified as problematic. Affected by this issue is an unknown code of the file drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.c of the component logitec-dj HID Driver. The manipulation of the argument CONFIG_HID_LOGITECH_DJ with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. Impacted is confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_LOGITECH_DJ is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted device.

The weakness was disclosed 08/28/2013 by Kees Cook with Google Inc. as Linux HID security flaws as not defined mailinglist post (oss-sec). The advisory is shared for download at seclists.org. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2013-2895 since 04/11/2013. The attack needs to be approached locally. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available.
