kernel: scsi: Stack-based buffer overflow in sg_ioctl function

The sgioctl function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service stack-based buffer overflow or possibly have unspecified other impacts via a large command size in an SGNEXTCMDLEN ioctl call, leading to out-of-bounds write access in the sgwrite functio...

kernel: Use after free in SCSI generic device interface (CVE-2016-9576 regression)
