CVE-2011-1776: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer

The isgptvalid function in fs/partitions/efi.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not check the size of an Extensible Firmware Interface EFI GUID Partition Table GPT entry, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service heap-based buffer overflow and OOPS or obtain...
