[PATCH v3 04/10] HID: steelseries: validate output report details

From: Benjamin Tissoires
Date: Wed Sep 11 2013 - 15:57:25 EST


From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

A HID device could send a malicious output report that would cause the
steelseries HID driver to write beyond the output report allocation
during initialization, causing a heap overflow:

[ 167.981534] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1038, idProduct=1410
...
[ 182.050547] BUG kmalloc-256 (Tainted: G W ): Redzone overwritten

CVE-2013-2891
