Description
Buffer overflow in sethdlc.c in the Asterisk Zaptel 1.4.5.1 might allow local users to gain privileges via a long device name (interface name) in the ifr_name field. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, stating that the application requires root access, so privilege boundaries are not crossed
