Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to the version that includes the fix for the issue described
Description
A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel related to the tpm module, specifically in the eventlog/acpi.c file. The issue arises from the use of kvalloc() and is associated with a warning reported on an HPE ProLiant D320 system. The warning indicates a problem with memory allocation, as evidenced by a transcript showing a CPU warning at mm/page alloc.c. The vulnerability is resolved by changing the memory allocation function from devm kmalloc() to kvmalloc() and utilizing devm add action().
