CVE-2024-57909: iio: light: bh1745: fix information leak in triggered buffer

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: 0.23% (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 1cca2a666e099aa018e5ab385f0a6e01a3053629, b62fbe3b8eedd3cf3c9ad0b7cb9f72c3f40815f0.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 1cca2a666e099aa018e5ab385f0a6e01a3053629, b62fbe3b8eedd3cf3c9ad0b7cb9f72c3f40815f0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: light: bh1745: fix information leak in triggered buffer The 'scan' local struct is used to push data to user space from a triggered buffer, but it does not set values for inactive channels, as it only uses iio_for_each_active_channel() to assign new values. Initialize the struct to zero before using it to avoid pushing uninitialized information to userspace.
