Revision Date: | 2015-01-02 | Version: | 1 | Title: | CVE-2014-9428 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (precise) - medium. | Description: | The batadv_frag_merge_packets function in net/batman-adv/fragmentation.c in the B.A.T.M.A.N. implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.18.1 uses an incorrect length field during a calculation of an amount of memory, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (mesh-node system crash) via fragmented packets. A flaw was discovered in the fragment handling of the B.A.T.M.A.N. Advanced Meshing Protocol in the Linux kernel. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (mesh-node system crash) via fragmented packets.
