CVE-2025-38329: firmware: cs_dsp: Fix OOB memory read access in KUnit test (wmfw info)
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: 0.18% (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 0000a2303ba78b6424ff15b5085b5f5098750a2e, d979b783d61f7f1f95664031b71a33afc74627b2; azl3 kernel 6.6.92.2-2 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.96.1-1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 0000a2303ba78b6424ff15b5085b5f5098750a2e, d979b783d61f7f1f95664031b71a33afc74627b2; azl3 kernel 6.6.92.2-2 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.96.1-1 or later.
