Bug description:
  The raw_cmd_copyin function in drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux
  kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly handle error conditions during
  processing of an FDRAWCMD ioctl call, which allows local users to
  trigger kfree operations and gain privileges by leveraging write
  access to a /dev/fd device. First, raw_cmd_ioctl calls raw_cmd_copyin.
  This function kmallocs space for a floppy_raw_cmd structure and stores
  the resulting allocation in the "rcmd" pointer argument. It then
  attempts to copy_from_user the structure from userspace. If this
  fails, an early EFAULT return is taken. The problem is that even if
  the early return is taken, the pointer to the non-/partially-
  initialized floppy_raw_cmd structure has already been returned via the
  "rcmd" pointer. Back out in raw_cmd_ioctl, it attempts to raw_cmd_free
  this pointer. raw_cmd_free attempts to free any DMA pages allocated
  for the raw command, kfrees the raw command structure itself, and
  follows the linked list, if any, of further raw commands (a user can
  specify the FD_RAW_MORE flag to signal that there are more raw
  commands to follow in a single FDRAWCMD ioctl). So, a malicious user
  can send a FDRAWCMD ioctl with a raw command argument structure that
  has some bytes inaccessible (ie. off the end of an allocated page).
  The copy_from_user will fail but raw_cmd_free will attempt to process
  the floppy_raw_cmd as if it had been fully initialized by the rest of
  raw_cmd_copyin. The user can control the arguments passed to
  fd_dma_mem_free and kfree (by making use of the linked-list feature
  and specifying the target address as a next-in-list structure).
