NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream reiserfs-kmp-rt package and not the reiserfs-kmp-rt package as distributed by SLES.

A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel, version kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. An attacker is able to cause a denial of service (system crash) or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when a STA works in IBSS mode (allows connecting stations together without the use of an AP) and connects to another STA.
