Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
zephyr-rtos version 1.12.0
Description
The issue is related to a NULL base pointer reference in the
sys ring buf put() and sys ring buf get() functions, which can cause a CPU Page Fault with error code 0x00000010. This can be exploited through a malicious application calling the vulnerable kernel APIs, specifically sys ring buf get() and sys ring buf put().Recommendations
For zephyr-rtos version 1.12.0, consider restricting access to the
sys ring buf get() and sys ring buf put() functions until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using these functions in applications to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploitability
