CVE-2022-49946: Linux Kernel

High severity, CVSS 7.1. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: bcm: rpi: Prevent out-of-bounds access The while loop in raspberrypi_discover_clocks() relies on the assumption that the id of the last clock element is zero. Because this data comes from the Videocore firmware and it doesn't guarantuee such a behavior this could lead to out-of-bounds access. So fix this by providing a sentinel element.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 5.9, before 5.10.142 (fixed in 5.10.142); from 5.11, before 5.15.66 (fixed in 5.15.66); from 5.16, before 5.19.8 (fixed in 5.19.8); version 6.0 only
