Linux kernel is vulnerable to buffer overflow attacks. This is because the length validation code in the wmi_set_ie() function does not properly handle unsigned integer overflow. As a result, a large value of the ‘ie_len argument could cause a buffer overflow and memory corruption which may leads to a system crash or other unspecified impact.
