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.
Platforms Affected:
- Intel, PRO 10/100 3.5.14
- Intel, PRO 10/100 4.0.3
- Intel, PRO 10/100 8.0.27.0
- Intel, PRO 1000 7.2.7
- Intel, PRO 1000 8.7.1.0
- Intel, PRO 1000 9.0.15
- Intel, PRO 1000 PCIe 9.1.30.0
- Intel, PRO 10GbE 1.0.109
Remedy:
Refer to Intel Advisory INTEL-sa-00004 for upgrade information. See References.
Consequences:
Gain Privileges
