** Description changed:

- A flaw was found in the b43 driver in the Linux kernel. If a system had
- an active wireless interface that uses the b43 driver, an attacker able
- to send a specially-crafted frame to that interface could cause a denial
- of service.
+ The dma_rx function in drivers/net/wireless/b43/dma.c in the Linux
+ kernel before 2.6.39 does not properly allocate receive buffers, which
+ allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via
+ a crafted frame.
  
  Break-Fix: - c85ce65ecac078ab1a1835c87c4a6319cf74660a
