Description
The sr_do_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sr_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.12 allows local users to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact because sense buffers have different sizes at the CDROM layer and the SCSI layer, as demonstrated by a CDROMREADMODE2 ioctl call.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 4.11 < 4.14.45)
• linux linux kernel (>= 4.15 < 4.16.13)
