Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's dvb-net component. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending specially crafted network data. This could lead to an out-of-bounds read in the handle_one_ule_extension() function, potentially allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code. The issue arises because an index derived from network-controlled data can exceed the bounds of an internal function pointer table.
Mitigation
No mitigation is specified in collected source.
