+
+[PATCH] Fix buffer overflow in Omnikey CardMan 4040 driver (CVE-2007-0005)
+
+Based on a patch from Don Howard <dhoward at redhat.com>
+
+When calling write() with a buffer larger than 512 bytes, the
+driver's write buffer overflows, allowing to overwrite the EIP and
+execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
+
+In read(), there exists a similar problem, but coming from the device.
+A malicous or buggy device sending more than 512 bytes can overflow
+of the driver's read buffer, with the same effects as above.
