| 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
A flaw exists in the Linux kernel related to the media subsystem, specifically within the Intel Video Subsystem Controller (IVSC) driver. Missing
mei cldev disable() calls in the ACE and CSI driver's remove functions can lead to a use-after-free condition during system shutdown. This occurs because the mei cl client remains in the mei device->file list even after its memory is freed, resulting in a crash when mei cl all disconnect() attempts to dereference the freed memory. The issue manifests as a KASAN report indicating a slab-use-after-free in mei cl set disconnected().Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
