CVE-2013-6381: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 6.9. EPSS: 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Buffer overflow in the qeth_snmp_command function in drivers/s390/net/qeth_core_main.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via an SNMP ioctl call with a length value that is incompatible with the command-buffer size.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: before 3.2.54 (fixed in 3.2.54); from 3.3, before 3.4.72 (fixed in 3.4.72); from 3.5, before 3.10.22 (fixed in 3.10.22); from 3.11, before 3.12.3 (fixed in 3.12.3)
