NVD Description

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

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ALSA: serial-u16550: Check card index validity at probe

serial-u16550 driver blindly trusts that the given devptr->id value is within the proper card index range at probe. It's OK for the devices the driver itself creates at the module probe time, but if the device is bound manually via sysfs interface, this could be -1 as "none", and this leads to OOB access for index[] and other parameters.

Add a sanity check for the card index and warn/correct it if it's a value out of the range.
