| 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 clock management on the MT8183 platform. The removal of SSPM (System Software Power Management) related clocks caused issues when converting to a new simple-probe mechanism. This mechanism allocates space for all defined clocks, and the removal created potential out-of-bound writes if there were gaps in the Device Tree (DT) binding or the driver. These errors could lead to memory corruption and system crashes. Adding the SSPM clocks back resolves the issue.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
