Description Adam Mariš 2017-04-25 09:46:15 EDT
drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/cxusb.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x and 4.10.x
before 4.10.12 interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK
option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system
crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of
more than one virtual page for a DMA scatterlist.
