CVSS v2.0
7.1
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.33-rc4
Description
The issue allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in a system crash. This is achieved by triggering a divide-by-zero error through unknown manipulations in the azx position ok function, specifically when running on the AMD780V chip set.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.33-rc4, consider updating to a newer version to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the azx position ok function in hda intel.c to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
DoS
