In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: adm1275: Prevent reading uninitialized stack
While adding support for the ROHM BD127X0 hot-swap controllers, sashiko reported an error in device-name comparison, which can lead to reading uninitialized stack memory.
Quoting Sashiko:
This is a pre-existing issue, but I noticed that just before this block in adm1275_probe(), there might be an out-of-bounds stack read:
Since i2c_smbus_read_block_data() reads up to 32 bytes into the uninitialized stack array block_buffer without appending a null terminator, strncasecmp() could read past the valid bytes returned in ret.
For example, if the device returns a shorter string like "adm12", checking it against "a
