ep93xx: clock: Fix off by one in ep93xx_div_recalc_rate()

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)

  • 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: 0.24% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 27f493e141823db052586010c1532b70b164507c, 66e78ade976dbd9bea09166aa8d66afc0963cde4, 7a5bd2fb92388c51d267f6ce57c40f1cca8af1e0.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 27f493e141823db052586010c1532b70b164507c, 66e78ade976dbd9bea09166aa8d66afc0963cde4, 7a5bd2fb92388c51d267f6ce57c40f1cca8af1e0 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ep93xx: clock: Fix off by one in ep93xx_div_recalc_rate() The psc->div[] array has psc->num_div elements. These values come from when we call clk_hw_register_div(). It's adc_divisors and ARRAY_SIZE(adc_divisors)) and so on. So this condition needs to be >= instead of > to prevent an out of bounds read.
