CVE-2017-8062 kernel: dw2102.c interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option
Last modified: 2017-04-25 10:00:00 EDT
drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/dw2102.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x and 4.10.x before 4.10.4 interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of more than one virtual page for a DMA scatterlist.
