Resolved Date: Sep 17, 2019
Found In Version: 7.0.0.2
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 7
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel before 5.2.3, set_geometry in drivers/block/floppy.c does not validate the sect and head fields, as demonstrated by an integer overflow and out-of-bounds read. It can be triggered by an unprivileged local user when a floppy disk has been inserted. NOTE: QEMU creates the floppy device by default.
