VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description An out-of-bounds memory access occurs in the vfe isr reg update() function. The vfe isr() function uses MSM VFE IMAGE MASTERS NUM (7) as a loop bound and passes the resulting index to vfe isr reg update(). Because the vfe->line[] array is defined with VFE LINE NUM MAX (4), indices 4, 5, and 6 exceed the array bounds.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
