| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel version 6.6.22
Description
The vulnerability is related to alignment issues in the Linux kernel's net: wwan: t7xx component. Some registers are aligned on a 32-bit boundary, causing alignment faults on 64-bit platforms. This can lead to a kernel paging request error and potentially cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. The issue is resolved by splitting 64-bit accesses into pairs of non-atomic 32-bit accesses.
Recommendations
To resolve the issue, update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix for the alignment issues in the net: wwan: t7xx component. Specifically, versions prior to 6.6.22 are affected, so updating to version 6.6.22 or later should resolve the issue.
Note: The provided information does not specify the exact version that includes the fix, but it is mentioned that version 6.6.22 is affected. Therefore, it is recommended to update to a newer version that includes the necessary patches.
