no victim action is needed.\nS:U - The defect is confined to the kernel's own memory and security authority with no crossing of a trust boundary such as VM or IOMMU.\nC:H - An out-of-bounds read that, when triggered, makes seq_puts() dereference an adjacent-memory-derived pointer and emit a kernel string into readable output — not strictly bounded to a few bytes.\nI:N - The operation is purely a read path emitting to a seq_file; it provides no memory-write or control-flow primitive.\nA:H - If the out-of-array slot holds a non-NULL invalid pointer, seq_puts() dereferences a wild pointer, which can oops/crash the kernel." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/mtd/spi-nor/debugfs.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "0257be79fc4a16a3252ce80aa13b3640f728c425", "lessThan": "231b8e1f604f6e0a7e100536f506cdf482e2c5f5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0257be79fc4a16a3252ce80aa13b3640f728c425", "lessThan": "9a80c458320e0514e11945402dd6e48fcee05524", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0257be79fc4a16a3252ce80aa13b3640f728c425", "lessThan": "ca18c180b053f6ce80394322b314ac721c316af7", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0257be79fc4a16a3252ce80aa13b3640f728c425", "lessThan": "34bdcfb496b29f9a52431194f94473b37fb8c162", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0257be79fc4a16a3252ce80aa13b3640f728c425", "lessThan": "c0b654bc0b76a1da102d9138be1ed1223bd99310", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0257be79fc4a16a3252ce80aa13b3640f728c425", "lessThan": "e47029b977e747cb3a9174308fd55762cce70147", "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/mtd/spi-nor/debugfs.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "5.19", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "5.19", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.1.176", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.140", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.88", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.30", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.0.7", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1", "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": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.176" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.140" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.88" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.30" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.7" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/231b8e1f604f6e0a7e100536f506cdf482e2c5f5" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9a80c458320e0514e11945402dd6e48fcee05524" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ca18c180b053f6ce80394322b314ac721c316af7" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/34bdcfb496b29f9a52431194f94473b37fb8c162" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c0b654bc0b76a1da102d9138be1ed1223bd99310" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e47029b977e747cb3a9174308fd55762cce70147" } ], "title": "mtd: spi-nor: debugfs: fix out-of-bounds read in spi_nor_params_show()", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
