CVE-2013-6763
Published: 12 November 2013
The uio_mmap_physical function in drivers/uio/uio.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 does not validate the size of a memory block, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges via crafted mmap operations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-4511.
From the Ubuntu security team
Nico Golde reported a flaw in the Linux kernel's userspace IO (uio) driver. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges.

Notes
| Author | Note |
|---|---|
| seth-arnold | Marked 'low' because uio_mmap_physical()'s only caller does length checking before the call, see the 12 November 2013 oss-security mail from Petr Matousek. |
