Last modified

CVE-2013-2850 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Heap-based buffer overflow in the iscsi_add_notunderstood_response function in drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_parameters.c in the iSCSI target subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.9.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and OOPS) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long key that is not properly handled during construction of an error-response packet.. EPSS estimates a 7.31% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
