CVE-2011-4914
Last modified
CVE-2011-4914 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The ROSE protocol implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not verify that certain data-length values are consistent with the amount of data sent, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via crafted data to a ROSE socket.. EPSS estimates a 8.79% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
