| Vector | AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions through 6.0.9
Description
An issue in the Linux kernel is related to a memory leak in the drivers/media/usb/ttusb-dec/ttusb dec.c component due to the lack of a
dvb frontend detach call. This can potentially allow an attacker to perform a denial-of-service attack.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions through 6.0.9, consider updating to a version that includes a fix for the memory leak issue in the drivers/media/usb/ttusb-dec/ttusb dec.c component. As a temporary workaround, restricting access to the vulnerable component may help minimize the risk of exploitation.
