Subject: [PATCH 05/14] HID: steelseries: validate output report details
Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2013 22:30:37 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.00.1308282201070.22181@pobox.suse.cz> (raw)

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

A HID device could send a malicious output report that would cause the
steelseries HID driver to write beyond the output report allocation
during initialization, causing a heap overflow:

[  167.981534] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1038, idProduct=1410
...
[  182.050547] BUG kmalloc-256 (Tainted: G        W   ): Redzone overwritten

CVE-2013-2891
