CVE-2019-14901: Buffer Overflow
First published: Mon Nov 18 2019(Updated: )
Linux Kernel is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the mwifiex_process_tdls_action_frame function in marvell/mwifiex/tdls.c. By sending a specially-crafted request, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service on the system.
