Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A issue in the Linux kernel has been identified, specifically in the iwlwifi component related to wifi functionality. The problem arises from the potential lack of NUL-termination in a file, which could lead to reading beyond the end of a TLV (Type-Length-Value) or even beyond the end of the file buffer. This is resolved by limiting the print format to the size of the available buffer, preventing potential overreads.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
