Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2013-12-27 15:26:38 UTC 
CVE-2013-4514 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-4514):
  Multiple buffer overflows in drivers/staging/wlags49_h2/wl_priv.c in the
  Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to cause a denial of service or
  possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN
  capability and providing a long station-name string, related to the (1)
  wvlan_uil_put_info and (2) wvlan_set_station_nickname functions.
