CVE-2018-11506

kernel: Stack-based buffer overflow in drivers/scsi/sr_ioctl.c allows denial of service or other unspecified impact

Published May 28, 2018 CVSS 3.1 · 7.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The sr_do_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sr_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.12 allows local users to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact because sense buffers have different sizes at the CDROM layer and the SCSI layer, as demonstrated by a CDROMREADMODE2 ioctl call.
