The snd_ctl_new() function in sound/core/control.c allocates space for a
snd_kcontrol struct by performing arithmetic operations on a
user-provided size without checking for integer overflow.  If a user
provides a large enough size, an overflow will occur, the allocated
chunk will be too small, and a second user-influenced value will be
written repeatedly past the bounds of this chunk.  This code is
reachable by unprivileged users who have permission to open
a /dev/snd/controlC* device (on many distros, this is group "audio") via
the SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_ADD and SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_REPLACE ioctls.
