Title:CVE-2017-5577 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - low.
Description:The vc4_get_bcl function in drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_gem.c in the VideoCore DRM driver in the Linux kernel before 4.9.7 does not set an errno value upon certain overflow detections, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer dereference and OOPS) via inconsistent size values in a VC4_SUBMIT_CL ioctl call. Ingo Molnar discovered that the VideoCore DRM driver in the Linux kernel did not return an error after detecting certain overflows. A local attacker could exploit this issue to cause a denial of service (OOPS).
