Re: Wow! Lots of kernel flaws...

Hello Arjan,

Stack-based buffer overflow in A5AGU.SYS 1.0.1.41 for the D-Link DWL-G132
wireless adapter allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a
802.11 beacon request with a long Rates information element (IE).

this is a WINDOWS driver!

Whoops! My bad. My cut 'n' paste didn't work well here.

the rest is basically the known set of "if you get enough power to have
a fully malformed filesystem the kernel oopses" category.. not that
urgent..
(should be fixed at some point of course like any kernel crash. But to
consider them as serious security issue... you could classify every
kernel oops as security that way)


True. But one of them, the ext3, looked more serious. OK, I'll hold off on the bugzilla.
