CVE-2024-42100: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 5.5. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: sunxi-ng: common: Don't call hw_to_ccu_common on hw without common In order to set the rate range of a hw sunxi_ccu_probe calls hw_to_ccu_common() assuming all entries in desc->ccu_clks are contained in a ccu_common struct. This assumption is incorrect and, in consequence, causes invalid pointer de-references. Remove the faulty call. Instead, add one more loop that iterates over the ccu_clks and sets the rate range, if required.

Affected products

  • Linux Linux Kernel: from 6.6.31, before 6.6.39 (fixed in 6.6.39); from 6.8.10, before 6.9 (fixed in 6.9); from 6.9.1, before 6.9.9 (fixed in 6.9.9); version 6.9 only; version 6.10 only
