Detail

The ftdi_sio driver (usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.17, and possibly later versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by writing more data to the serial port than the hardware can handle, which causes the data to be queued.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
27119 Linux Kernel ftdi_sio Serial Port Data Saturation Local DoS

The Linux kernel contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered because the 'ftdi_sio' serial driver cannot handle data at the rate it can be queued for, which may lead to consumption of all system memory resulting in loss of availability for the platform.
