Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2024-35796
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue is related to the replacement of the `platform get resource` function with `devm platform ioremap resource byname` in the Linux kernel, specifically in the `ll temac` component. This replacement causes a null pointer in the `strcmp` function, leading to a potential denial of service. The function `platform get resource byname` is called with a name of 0, which results in the null pointer. The correct replacement should have been `devm platform ioremap resource`.
Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
