Package Name: sys-kernel/linux-headers
Package Version: [cpe:/o:linux:linux_kernel:4.0 cpe:/o:linux:linux_kernel:4.4]

  Details: https://vomit.googleplex.com/advisory?id=CVE/CVE-2010-5321
  CVSS severity score: 4.9/10.0
  Confidence: high
  Description:

Memory leak in drivers/media/video/videobuf-core.c in the videobuf subsystem in the Linux kernel 2.6.x through 4.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging /dev/video access for a series of mmap calls that require new allocations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-6761.  NOTE: as of 2016-06-18, this affects only 11 drivers that have not been updated to use videobuf2 instead of videobuf.
