DescriptionNVD

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

comedi: dt2815: add hardware detection to prevent crash

The dt2815 driver crashes when attached to I/O ports without actual hardware present. This occurs because syzkaller or users can attach the driver to arbitrary I/O addresses via COMEDI_DEVCONFIG ioctl.

When no hardware exists at the specified port, inb() operations return 0xff (floating bus), but outb() operations can trigger page faults due to undefined behavior, especially under race conditions:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 000000007fffff90 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page RIP: 0010:dt2815_attach+0x6e0/0x1110

Add hardware detection by reading the status register before attempting any write operations. If the read returns 0xff, assume no hardware is present and fail the attach with -ENODEV. This prevents crashes from outb() operations on non-existent hardware.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in the Linux kernel comedi dt2815 driver allows local authenticated users to crash the system by attaching the driver to arbitrary I/O addresses without actual hardware present via the COMEDI_DEVCONFIG ioctl. The vulnerability occurs when outb() operations are performed on non-existent hardware, triggering page faults under race conditions. …
