Description

The aac_send_raw_srb function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain size value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted SRB command.

Affected products

Linux kernel: through 3.12.1; 3.0-rc1, 3.0-rc2, 3.0-rc3, 3.0-rc4, 3.0-rc5, 3.0-rc6 (+267)
