In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ump: Fix buffer overflow at UMP SysEx message conversion
The conversion function from MIDI 1.0 to UMP packet contains an
internal buffer to keep the incoming MIDI bytes, and its size is 4, as
it was supposed to be the max size for a MIDI1 UMP packet data.
However, the implementation overlooked that SysEx is handled in a
different format, and it can be up to 6 bytes, as found in
do_convert_to_ump(). It leads eventually to a buffer overflow, and
may corrupt the memory when a longer SysEx message is received.
The fix is simply to extend the buffer size to 6 to fit with the SysEx
UMP message.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) Universal MIDI Packet (UMP) driver. This vulnerability allows a buffer overflow and potential memory corruption via a malformed Universal MIDI Packet (UMP) System Exclusive (SysEx) message during MIDI 1.0 to UMP conversion.
Отчет
MODERATE: A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ALSA Universal MIDI Packet (UMP) driver could lead to a memory corruption due to a buffer overflow problem. This vulnerability occurs during MIDI to UMP conversion when processing a malformed UMP System Exclusive (SysEx) message. In this flaw a local attacker with normal user privilege may cause a random memory corruption which may lead to a denial of service (DoS).
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
