NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kfreebsd-10 package and not the kfreebsd-10 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer signedness error in the vt console driver (formerly Newcons) in FreeBSD 9.3 before p10 and 10.1 before p6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly gain privileges via a negative value in a VT_WAITACTIVE ioctl call, which triggers an array index error and out-of-bounds kernel memory access.
