CVE-2011-1494: Buffer Overflow
Published Apr 6, 2011
·Updated
At two points in handling device ioctls via /dev/mpt2ctl, user-supplied length values are used to copy data from userspace into heap buffers without bounds checking, allowing controllable heap corruption and subsequently privilege escalation.
Additionally, user-supplied values are used to determine the size of a copytouser() as well as the offset into the buffer to be read, with no bounds checking, allowing users to read arbitrary kernel memory.
Compile-tested only. Thanks to Eric Moore for suggestions on how to fix this.

Red Hat would like to thank Dan Rosenberg for reporting this issue.
Other sources
Integer overflow in the ctldomptcommand function in drivers/scsi/mpt2sas/mpt2sasctl.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.38 and earlier might allow local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via an ioctl call specifying a crafted value that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
