CVE-2024-46844

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to the use of an uninitialized pointer in the setup one line() function in the Linux kernel.

The *error out pointer is not initialized by callers but is still printed in some cases, and the fix involves initializing it in all possible cases in setup one line().

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
