Description

ALSA: asihpi: Fix potential OOB array access

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ALSA: asihpi: Fix potential OOB array access

ASIHPI driver stores some values in the static array upon a response

from the driver, and its index depends on the firmware. We shouldn't

trust it blindly.

This patch adds a sanity check of the array index to fit in the array

size.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability high.

CVSS metrics in full

The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

  • Attack vector: Local — a local account, shell or session on the host is needed.
  • Attack complexity: Low — the attack works reliably, with no preparation.
  • Privileges required: Low — an ordinary user account is enough.
  • User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
  • Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
  • Confidentiality impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
  • Integrity impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
  • Availability impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.

Weakness class

CVE-2024-50007 is classified as CWE-129: Improper Validation of Array Index. An index derived from input is used without a range check, so the access lands outside the array.
