CVE-2022-50051: Linux Kernel

High severity, CVSS 7.8. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: debug: Fix potential buffer overflow by snprintf() snprintf() returns the would-be-filled size when the string overflows the given buffer size, hence using this value may result in the buffer overflow (although it's unrealistic). This patch replaces with a safer version, scnprintf() for papering over such a potential issue.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 5.11, before 5.15.63 (fixed in 5.15.63); from 5.16, before 5.19.4 (fixed in 5.19.4); version 6.0 only
