A flaw was found in ofono, an Open Source Telephony on Linux. A stack
overflow bug is triggered within the decode_deliver_report() function
during the SMS decoding. It is assumed that the attack scenario is
accessible from a compromised modem, a malicious base station, or just SMS.
There is a bound check for this memcpy length in decode_submit(), but it
was forgotten in decode_deliver_report().

Notes

Author Note
sbeattie Fedora seems to think that this was fixed in ofono 2.5; however, while that release does seem to add some additional bounds checks, the specific function referenced has not been touched since 2010. It’s not clear if or how this was fixed upstream.
