CVE-2011-4914

Published: 6/21/2012 Last updated: 8/7/2024 Reserved: 12/23/2011

The ROSE protocol implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not verify that certain data-length values are consistent with the amount of data sent, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via crafted data to a ROSE socket.
