kernel: sound: a race condition in the kernel sound timer in snd_timer_user_read()

A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's sound timer code in the sndtimeruserread function in the sound/core/timer.c file. An unprivileged attacker can exploit the race condition to cause an out-of-bound access which may lead to a system crash or other unspecified impact. Due to the natur...

DEBIAN-CVE-2016-4578

sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize certain r1 data structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via crafted use of the ALSA timer interface, related to the 1 sndtimeruserccallback and 2 sndtimerusertinterrupt...

DEBIAN-CVE-2016-4569

The sndtimeruserparams function in sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via crafted use of the ALSA timer interface...

CVE-2016-4578

CVE-2016-4578 affects the Linux kernel’s ALSA timer subsystem (snd_timer_user_ccallback and snd_timer_user_tinterrupt). The provided sources confirm a local information leak: if the snd_timer interfaces are used, uninitialized r1 data can be read from kernel stack memory, enabling a local attacke...
