Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 6.11.0-rc6-next-20240902-00001-g131bf9439dd9
Description
A vulnerability has been resolved in the Linux kernel. The issue is related to the flexspi compatible string in the arm64: dts: imx8ulp. The flexspi on imx8ulp only has 16 LUTs, whereas the imx8mm flexspi has 32 LUTs. This discrepancy can cause an error. The vulnerability is related to the
nxp fspi exec op function and the spi mem exec op function.Recommendations
To resolve the issue, update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix for the flexspi compatible string. Specifically, update to a version later than 6.11.0-rc6-next-20240902-00001-g131bf9439dd9. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the
nxp fspi exec op function until a patch is available. Restrict access to the vulnerable module to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the affected API endpoints until the issue is resolved.Exploit
