Description Prasad Pandit 2013-11-22 12:39:33 UTC 
Linux kernel built with a USB over WiFi Host Controller(CONFIG_USB_WPAN_HCD)
driver support is vulnerable to a buffer overflow flaw. It could occur while
writing to the device file.

A user/program able to write to the device file could use this flaw to potentially further escalate privileges on a system.
