CVE-2010-5321
First published: Tue Aug 03 2010(Updated: )
Description of problem: Since videobuf allocates memory on mmap(), calling mmap enough times for the same buffer (offset) resulted in a new memory allocation by videobuf on each such call and losing the old allocation, resulting in a leak each time and the system running out of memory.
