Описание
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.1. drivers/media/usb/gspca/ov519.c allows NULL pointer dereferences in ov511_mode_init_regs and ov518_mode_init_regs when there are zero endpoints, aka CID-998912346c0d.
A flaw was found in the way the ov519 driver in the Linux kernel handled certain types of USB descriptors. This flaw allows an attacker with the ability to induce the error conditions to crash the system.
Отчет
This issue is rated as having Low impact because of the preconditions needed to trigger the issue (physical access).
Меры по смягчению последствий
In order to mitigate this issue it is possible to prevent the affected code from being loaded by blacklisting the kernel module gspca_ov519. For instructions relating to how to blacklist a kernel module refer to: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 .
