7.8 HIGH

Local low-privilege UAF in kernel driver; hardware prerequisite is a deployment filter, not an attack complexity factor once hardware is present.

vuln.today treats the vendor’s rating as authoritative. A higher third-party CVSS (e.g. CISA-ADP) is shown for transparency but does not drive the headline severity.

DescriptionCVE.org

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

ata: pata_sl82c105: fix bridge revision use-after-free

pci_get_slot() returns a referenced PCI device. Commit 44c10138fd4b ("PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revision") replaced a configuration-space read with direct access to the cached revision field, but left that access after pci_dev_put(). The bridge may therefore be freed before its revision is read.

Read the revision before dropping the reference.

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's pata_sl82c105 PATA bridge driver allows a local low-privileged user to potentially achieve kernel memory corruption leading to privilege escalation on systems equipped with the SL82C105 PCI bridge chip. The defect was introduced by commit 44c10138fd4b, which replaced a PCI configuration-space read with direct access to the cached revision field of a PCI device struct - but left that access after the reference was dropped via pci_dev_put(), creating a window where the bridge struct may be freed before the read occurs. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires all of the following: (1) local access with at least a low-privilege operating system account on the target machine; (2) the target system must be physically equipped with a Winbond/Symphony SL82C105 PATA bridge PCI device - without this hardware the vulnerable code path is never reached; (3) the pata_sl82c105 kernel module must load (it loads automatically when the hardware is detected). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Despite the CVSS base score of 7.8 with C:H/I:H/A:H, the realistic exploitation risk is substantially lower than those metrics suggest. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upstream fix available across multiple stable branches via kernel.org stable commits (see references: git.kernel.org/stable/c/1268ca9418e2, /a626dfca9604, /5ef87b1b4656, /fa0dca89b4fb, /dc711fb137b3, /a837deeaa37c, /56fd78c8c820, /7700a31039cd). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Use lspci, dmidecode, or hardware inventory systems to identify all Linux servers with SL82C105 PCI bridge hardware and categorize by distribution and kernel version; coordinate with infrastructure and procurement teams to compile a definitive affected systems list. …
