** Description changed:
- Fixed by:
+ The agp_generic_remove_memory function in drivers/char/agp/generic.c in
+ the Linux kernel before 2.6.38.5 does not validate a certain start
+ parameter, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial
+ of service (system crash) via a crafted AGPIOC_UNBIND agp_ioctl ioctl
+ call, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1745.

- agp: fix arbitrary kernel memory writes
-
- pg_start is copied from userspace on AGPIOC_BIND and AGPIOC_UNBIND ioctl
- cmds of agp_ioctl() and passed to agpioc_bind_wrap(). As said in the
- comment, (pg_start + mem->page_count) may wrap in case of AGPIOC_BIND,
- and it is not checked at all in case of AGPIOC_UNBIND. As a result, user
- with sufficient privileges (usually "video" group) may generate either
- local DoS or privilege escalation.
