NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dtrace-modules-4.1.12-61.1.27.el7uek package and not the dtrace-modules-4.1.12-61.1.27.el7uek package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 allows local users to bypass integer overflow checks, and cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or have unspecified other impact, by leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file for a VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS ioctl call, aka a "state machine confusion bug."
