Revision Date: | 2016-05-23 | Version: | 1 | Title: | CVE-2016-4568 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (precise) - medium. | Description: | drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-v4l2.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted number of planes in a VIDIOC_DQBUF ioctl call. It was discovered that the Video For Linux Two (v4l2) implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle multiple planes when processing a VIDIOC_DQBUF ioctl(). A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
