Security Advisory Description
The mpi_powm function in lib/mpi/mpi-pow.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11
does not ensure that memory is allocated for limb data, which allows local
users to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) via an
add_key system call for an RSA key with a zero exponent. (CVE-2016-8650)
Impact
Traffix SDC
A local attacker can exploit this issue to cause a denial of service (DoS)
on the affected system.
