Last modified

CVE-2013-4514 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple buffer overflows in drivers/staging/wlags49_h2/wl_priv.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and providing a long station-name string, related to the (1) wvlan_uil_put_info and (2) wvlan_set_station_nickname functions.. EPSS estimates a 0.59% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
