Detail

The load_mixer_volumes function in sound/oss/soundcard.c in the OSS sound subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37 incorrectly expects that a certain name field ends with a '\0' character, which allows local users to conduct buffer overflow attacks and gain privileges, or possibly obtain sensitive information from kernel memory, via a SOUND_MIXER_SETLEVELS ioctl call.

70240 Linux Kernel sound/oss/soundcard.c load_mixer_volumes() Function SOUND_MIXER_...

Linux Kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when Aa error within the 'load_mixer_volumes()' function in 'sound/oss/soundcard.c' occurs, which will disclose certain kernel memory to a local attacker via a crafted SOUND_MIXER_SETLEVELS IOCTL.
70239 Linux Kernel sound/oss/soundcard.c load_mixer_volumes() Function SOUND_MIXER_...

Linux Kernel is prone to an overflow condition. The 'load_mixer_volumes()' function in 'sound/oss/soundcard.c' fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted SOUND_MIXER_SETLEVELS IOCTL, a local attacker can potentially execute arbitrary code.
