Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: asihpi: Fix potential OOB array access
ASIHPI driver stores some values in the static array upon a response
from the driver, and its index depends on the firmware. We shouldn't
trust it blindly.
This patch adds a sanity check of the array index to fit in the array
size.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) High Performance Interface (ASIHPI) driver. This vulnerability allows a local attacker with administrative privileges to cause an out-of-bounds (OOB) array access. The driver processes responses from firmware without adequately validating array indices, which can lead to memory corruption. Successful exploitation could result in information disclosure or a denial of service (DoS).
Отчет
This issue is considered to be a moderate impact flaw, as the exploitation for this will need an ADMIN (or ROOT) privilege (PR:H).
Меры по смягчению последствий
If the HPI audio hardware is not in use, prevent the asihpi kernel module from loading to mitigate this vulnerability. Create a file such as /etc/modprobe.d/disable-asihpi.conf with the following content:
After creating the file, regenerate the initramfs and reboot the system for the changes to take effect. This action may impact functionality if HPI audio hardware is present and in use.
