This caused any SPI transfer issued by those callbacks\nto carry cs_change=1, leaving CS permanently asserted after the\nconversion. Fix by moving both calls into the out_unlock: block, after\nkeep_cs_asserted is cleared, matching the pattern already used in\nad_sd_calibrate().\n\nIn the error path of ad_sd_buffer_postenable(), if an operation fails\nafter set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_CONTINUOUS) has already succeeded (e.g.\nspi_offload_trigger_enable()), the device is left in continuous\nconversion mode with CS physically asserted. Additionally,\nbus_locked remaining true after spi_bus_unlock() causes subsequent\nSPI operations to call spi_sync_locked() without the bus lock actually\nheld, allowing concurrent SPI access.\n\nFix the error path by clearing keep_cs_asserted first, then calling\nset_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) to revert the device mode and deassert CS,\nthen clearing bus_locked before releasing the bus.\n\nFor devices that implement neither set_mode nor disable_one (such as\nMAX11205, which has no physical CS pin), no SPI transfer is issued\nduring cleanup and the cs_change flag has no effect on any physical\nline." } ], "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 - An attacker reaches the vulnerable conversion path through local reads of IIO `*_raw` sysfs attributes; physical access to the installed ADC is unnecessary.\nAC:L - The normal single-conversion cleanup deterministically leaves CS asserted, and the attacker can repeat the trigger or interrupt their own conversion wait without winning a race.\nPR:L - IIO raw attributes are world-readable and the path contains no capability or authentication check, so an ordinary unprivileged local user can trigger it.\nUI:N - The attacker directly reads the sysfs attribute or initiates permitted device access; no victim action is required.\nS:U - The affected ADC, SPI controller, shared-bus devices, and kernel operate under the same system security authority; this is not a sandbox or virtualization boundary escape.\nC:N - The state corruption creates no kernel-memory disclosure or unauthorized read primitive; the separate heap-overflow issue in CVE-2026-64502 is not part of this CVE.\nI:H - With CS stuck active, attacker-influenced traffic for another shared-bus device can be consumed as commands by register-based ADCs, including writes to mode, channel, offset, and gain registers that can completely corrupt measurement integrity.\nA:H - The persistently selected ADC can contend on MISO, consume sibling-device traffic, and leave the ADC or shared SPI bus unusable until reset or corrective access; an unprivileged attacker can repeatedly restore this condition." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/iio/adc/ad_sigma_delta.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "132d44dc6966c1cf841ffe0f6f048165687e870b", "lessThan": "c313bb7c38855e94ceef939d152dd75e5a904b5f", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "132d44dc6966c1cf841ffe0f6f048165687e870b", "lessThan": "f1de829ee87a1198d3465493ce430d36c5fa029c", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "132d44dc6966c1cf841ffe0f6f048165687e870b", "lessThan": "c72da0688575e5ef39c36bb44fed53aa18f8ae65", "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/iio/adc/ad_sigma_delta.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.14", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.14", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.39", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1.4", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2", "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": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.39" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.4" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c313bb7c38855e94ceef939d152dd75e5a904b5f" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f1de829ee87a1198d3465493ce430d36c5fa029c" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c72da0688575e5ef39c36bb44fed53aa18f8ae65" } ], "title": "iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix CS held asserted and state leaks", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
