Description

A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel, version kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. An attacker is able to cause a denial of service (system crash) or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when a STA works in IBSS mode (allows connecting stations together without the use of an AP) and connects to another STA.

Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-121•Stack-based Buffer Overflow

    A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).

  • CWE-787•Out-of-bounds Write

    The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
