AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C

Exploitability: 10.0 / Impact: 6.9

Source: NVD

Description

The ftdi_sio driver (usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.17, and possibly later versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by writing more data to the serial port than the hardware can handle, which causes the data to be queued.
