Details
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Linux Kernel up to 4.0.5 (Operating System). Affected is the function oz_usb_rx/oz_usb_handle_ep_data of the file drivers/staging/ozwpan/ozusbsvc1.c of the component OZWPAN Driver. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as 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. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
drivers/staging/ozwpan/ozusbsvc1.c in the OZWPAN driver in the Linux kernel through 4.0.5 does not ensure that certain length values are sufficiently large, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash or large loop) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet, related to the (1) oz_usb_rx and (2) oz_usb_handle_ep_data functions.
The weakness was released 06/07/2015 by Jason A. Donenfeld as not defined mailinglist post (oss-sec). The advisory is available at seclists.org. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2015-4002 since 05/15/2015. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit. The structure of the vulnerability defines a possible price range of USD $5k-$25k at the moment (estimation calculated on 05/20/2022).
