CVE-2025-38342 HIGH

Published: 2025-07-10 | Last Modified: 2026-05-12 | Status: Modified

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: software node: Correct a OOB check in software_node_get_reference_args() software_node_get_reference_args() wants to get @index-th element, so the property value requires at least '(index + 1) * sizeof(*ref)' bytes but that can not be guaranteed by current OOB check, and may cause OOB for malformed property. Fix by using as OOB check '((index + 1) * sizeof(*ref) > prop->length)'.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nodo de software: Se corrige una comprobación OOB en software_node_get_reference_args(). software_node_get_reference_args() busca obtener el elemento @index-ésimo, por lo que el valor de la propiedad requiere al menos '(index + 1) * sizeof(*ref)' bytes, pero esto no se puede garantizar con la comprobación OOB actual y puede causar OOB para una propiedad mal formada. Se corrige usando como comprobación OOB '((index + 1) * sizeof(*ref) > prop->length)'.
