Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: tas2781: bound firmware description string parsing
The TAS2781 firmware parser reads several variable-length description
strings with strlen() before checking that the string terminator is
present inside the firmware blob. A malformed firmware image without a
NUL terminator can therefore make the parser walk past the end of the
firmware buffer before the later size checks run.
Add a small bounded string-length helper and use it for all description
fields that are parsed from the firmware buffer. Keep the existing size
checks for the fixed bytes that follow each string.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ASoC TAS2781 firmware parser. This vulnerability occurs when the parser reads variable-length description strings without properly checking for a null terminator within the firmware blob. A specially crafted, malformed firmware image could allow an attacker to cause the parser to read beyond the intended buffer, potentially leading to information disclosure or system instability.
Отчет
This issue affects TI TAS2781 audio amplifiers. Firmware description strings are read with strlen() before confirming NUL terminator in blob. Systems without TAS2781 codecs are not affected.
