Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.21% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 57bb34330c0fc70bb4ab96399a3c1b80e73e9d49, 84498d1fb35de6ab71bdfdb6270a464fb4a0951b, 961db32e52f4d34a9a95939a30393fd190397f84.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regmap-irq: Use the new num_config_regs property in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode Commit faa87ce9196d ("regmap-irq: Introduce config registers for irq types") added the num_config_regs, then commit 9edd4f5aee84 ("regmap-irq: Deprecate type registers and virtual registers") suggested to replace num_type_reg with it. However, regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode wasn't modified to use the new property. Later on, commit 255a03bb1bb3 ("ASoC: wcd9335: Convert irq chip to config regs") removed the old num_type_reg property from the WCD9335 driver's struct regmap_irq_chip, causing a null pointer dereference in regmap_irq_set_type when it tried to index d->type_buf as it was never allocated in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode: [ 39.199374] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 [ 39.200006] Call trace: [ 39.200014] regmap_irq_set_type+0x84/0x1c0 [ 39.200026] __irq_set_trigger+0x60/0x1c0 [ 39.200040] __setup_irq+0x2f4/0x78c [ 39.200051] request_threaded_irq+0xe8/0x1a0 Use num_config_regs in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode instead of num_type_reg, and fall back to it if num_config_regs isn't defined to maintain backward compatibility.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

EPSS, last 120 days

FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
