This may result in exceeding the maximum permitted\nSPI message size, which could cause undefined behaviour, e.g. data\ncorruption.\n\nFix regmap_get_spi_bus() to properly adjust the above mentioned limits\nby reserving space for the register address/padding as set in the regmap\nconfiguration." } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 7.1, "baseSeverity": "HIGH" }, "scenarios": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "AV:L - The flaw is in kernel SPI regmap sizing used by local device drivers (codecs, sensors, MFDs) when performing raw/bulk register I/O; it is not reachable via network protocols or adjacent-link frames, and does not require physical SPI pin access.\nAC:L - On SPI controllers that publish a finite max_message_size, oversized chunking is deterministic arithmetic (max_raw equals max_transfer without reserving reg/pad bytes), so a large regmap_raw_read/write reliably produces an over-limit message with no race or attacker-uncontrollable timing.\nPR:L - Large SPI regmap transfers are reachable from unprivileged local contexts that exercise device interfaces which load firmware or perform bulk I/O (e.g., ALSA/HDA paths that drive Cirrus cs_dsp regmap_raw_write_async, IIO/sysfs device access), without needing init-namespace root or capabilities.\nUI:N - The attacker triggers the oversized SPI message solely by driving their own device I/O or firmware-load path; no separate victim action such as mounting a filesystem or opening a crafted file is required.\nS:U - Impact stays within the host kernel and attached SPI device/controller under the same OS security authority; there is no VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other cross-boundary effect.\nC:N - The defect causes oversized SPI messages and potential write-side FIFO/MMIO corruption; receive buffers remain caller-sized, and there is no OOB read, UAF, or other kernel information-disclosure primitive.\nI:H - Exceeding max SPI message size yields undefined behavior and data corruption as stated in the fix, and on controllers without a secondary length check (e.g., amd_spi FIFO MMIO writes) constitutes an out-of-bounds write past the hardware FIFO into adjacent controller state—treated as High per OOB-write guidance.\nA:H - Oversized transfers can fail, time out, or leave SPI controller/device state corrupted so subsequent I/O hangs or faults; when choosing between no availability impact and sustained device/controller denial of service, High is the more severe defensible rating." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/base/regmap/regmap-spi.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "f231ff38b7b23197013b437128d196710fe282da", "lessThan": "15ff1f17847c19174b260bd7dd0de33edcebd45e", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "f231ff38b7b23197013b437128d196710fe282da", "lessThan": "f5723cfc01932c7a8d5c78dbf7e067e537c91439", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/base/regmap/regmap-spi.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "5.16", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "5.16", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "5.19.9", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.19.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.0", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.16", "versionEndExcluding": "5.19.9" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.16", "versionEndExcluding": "6.0" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/15ff1f17847c19174b260bd7dd0de33edcebd45e" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f5723cfc01932c7a8d5c78dbf7e067e537c91439" } ], "title": "regmap: spi: Reserve space for register address/padding", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "type": "CWE", "cweId": "CWE-120", "lang": "en", "description": "CWE-120 Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input ('Classic Buffer Overflow')" } ] } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "scope": "UNCHANGED", "version": "3.1", "baseScore": 5.5, "attackVector": "LOCAL", "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "userInteraction": "NONE", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "availabilityImpact": "NONE", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE" } }, { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "timestamp": "2024-05-03T19:17:13.192981Z", "id": "CVE-2022-48696", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "no" }, { "Technical Impact": "partial" } ], "role": "CISA Coordinator", "version": "2.0.3" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2024-11-20T14:43:46.697Z" } }, { "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108", "shortName": "CVE", "dateUpdated": "2024-08-03T15:17:55.746Z" }, "title": "CVE Program Container", "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/15ff1f17847c19174b260bd7dd0de33edcebd45e", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f5723cfc01932c7a8d5c78dbf7e067e537c91439", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] } ] } ] } }
