CVE-2006-1368 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Buffer overflow in the USB Gadget RNDIS implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kmalloc'd memory corruption) via a remote NDIS response to OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_LIST, which causes memory to be allocated for the reply data but not the reply structure.. EPSS estimates a 6.01% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
