Published Mar 30, 2017 CVSS 3.0 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The vmw_gb_surface_define_ioctl function in drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.7 does not validate certain levels data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted ioctl call for a /dev/dri/renderD* device.
