CVE-2025-38249
CVSS v3.1
7.1
High
| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux Kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The Linux kernel contains a flaw in the
snd usb get audioformat uac3() function within the ALSA subsystem. The function directly uses a length value received from a USB device for memory allocation without proper validation. This length is then used to cast a buffer to a uac3 cluster header descriptor and access its fields, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds read if the device returns a length smaller than expected.Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
