A HID device could send a malicious output report that would cause the
steelseries HID driver to write beyond the output report allocation
during initialization, causing a heap overflow:

[  167.981534] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1038, idProduct=1410
...
[  182.050547] BUG kmalloc-256 (Tainted: G        W   ): Redzone overwritten

CVE-2013-2891
