Multiple Intel LAN Drivers buffer overflow
| intel-lan-driver-bo (30750) |  High Risk |
Description:
Multiple Intel PCI, PCI-X, and PCIe network adapter drivers are vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by an unspecified function. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with kernel-level privileges.
