Description Jan Lieskovsky 2007-11-28 14:11:40 UTC
Description of problem:

Buffer overflow in the bufprint function in capiutil.c in libcapi, as used in
Linux kernel 2.6.9 to 2.6.20 and isdn4k-utils, allows local users to cause a
denial of service (crash) and possibly gain privileges via a crafted CAPI
packet.
