CVE-2024-57990: wifi: mt76: mt7925: fix off by one in mt7925_load_clc()

HighCVSS 7.8 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 31/100)

  • 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 08fa656c91fd5fdf47ba393795b9c0d1e97539ed, 2d1628d32300e4f67ac0b7409cbfa7b912a8fe9d, 6.11.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 08fa656c91fd5fdf47ba393795b9c0d1e97539ed, 2d1628d32300e4f67ac0b7409cbfa7b912a8fe9d, 6.11 or later.
