** Description changed: - Due to a failure to validate user-supplied indexes in the driver for - Yamaha YM3812 and OPL-3 chips, a specially crafted ioctl request may be - sent to /dev/sequencer, resulting in reading and writing beyond the - bounds of heap buffers, and potentially allowing privilege escalation. + Multiple array index errors in sound/oss/opl3.c in the Linux kernel + before 2.6.39 allow local users to cause a denial of service (heap + memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges by leveraging write + access to /dev/sequencer. Break-Fix: - 4d00135a680727f6c3be78f8befaac009030e4df
