Description Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-14 13:15:08 UTC
I don't think this is widely used, filing for completeness.

Buffer overflow in the bufprint function in capiutil.c in libcapi, as used in Linux kernel 2.6.9 to 2.6.20 and isdn4k-utils, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly gain privileges via a crafted CAPI packet.
