High
| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue is related to a potential out-of-bounds access when using
test bit() on a single word. The test bit() and set bit() functions operate on long values, and when testing or setting a single word, they can exceed the word boundary. KASAN detects this issue and produces a dump, indicating a slab-out-of-bounds error in scsih add device.constprop.0. The allocation should be at least the size of sizeof(unsigned long) to prevent set bit() and test bit() from overwriting unallocated memory.Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
