Vulnerability Assessment

Exploitation Conditions

Requires the target system to physically include a Honeywell MPRLS0025PA pressure sensor wired over SPI and the mprls0025pa_spi IIO driver to be built and loaded on a Linux kernel between 6.9 and the fixed stable points (6.12.75 / 6.18.14 / 6.19.4 / 7.0). The attacker must have local access (CVSS AV:L) with the ability to interact with the corresponding /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio*/ attributes or /dev/iio:device* node - which on default distributions means root or membership in the iio/udev-configured group, not the PR:N implied by the vector. Limiting factors include the niche hardware requirement, absence of the driver on the vast majority of general-purpose Linux deployments, and lack of any remote attack surface.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H scores 8.4 and claims an unauthenticated local attacker can fully compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability - but this is almost certainly an automated overestimate inherited from the kernel CNA template. Exploitation realistically requires (a) hardware presence of an MPRLS0025PA SPI pressure sensor, (b) the mprls0025pa_spi module being built and loaded, and (c) some local interaction with the driver's IIO sysfs/character interface, which typically requires root or a privileged group. EPSS of 0.02% (5th percentile) and the lack of CISA KEV listing or public PoC are consistent with this being a code-quality fix shipped through normal Linux stable backports rather than an actively exploited issue. PR:N in the vector conflicts with the reality that IIO device nodes are not world-writable by default - defenders should treat this as a low-priority hygiene patch on systems that actually instantiate this sensor.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

On an embedded or industrial Linux system that exposes a Honeywell MPRLS0025PA SPI pressure sensor via the iio interface, a local user with access to the IIO sysfs/chardev entries triggers a pressure read, causing the kernel to issue an SPI transfer described by an only-partially-initialized spi_transfer struct. The uninitialized fields can cause the SPI controller to act on stale stack bytes - leaking small amounts of kernel stack memory through observable side effects or producing inconsistent sensor data. No public proof-of-concept exists at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 14, 2026

Uninitialized stack memory disclosure in the Linux kernel's iio pressure sensor driver (mprls0025pa) for the Honeywell MPRLS0025PA SPI pressure sensor stems from a spi_transfer struct that was not zeroed before use. Local users on systems with the vulnerable driver loaded may trigger undefined SPI transfer behavior and potentially leak kernel stack contents. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS rates exploitation likelihood at 0.02% (5th percentile).

RemediationAI

Apply the Linux kernel upgrade containing the fix: vendor-released patch confirmed at mainline 7.0 and stable series 6.12.75, 6.18.14, and 6.19.4 (commits 72158f9ae29a, 664ffdf34c01, 9080c7ac30f5, 1e0ac56c92e2 on git.kernel.org/stable). Distribution users should pull the corresponding vendor kernel update (Debian/Ubuntu/RHEL/SUSE/Oracle) as it rolls into their stable trees. As a compensating control on systems that do not need this sensor, blacklist or unload the module (echo 'blacklist mprls0025pa_spi' > /etc/modprobe.d/mprls.conf, then rmmod), which fully removes exposure but disables any legitimate use of an attached MPRLS0025PA pressure sensor; alternatively, restrict access to the device's /sys/bus/iio/devices/iioX/ and /dev/iio:deviceX nodes via udev rules so only trusted users/services can interact with the driver, accepting that monitoring agents using that sensor will need matching group membership.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The bug lives in drivers/iio/pressure/mprls0025pa-spi.c, the Industrial I/O (IIO) subsystem driver for Honeywell's MPRLS0025PA absolute pressure sensor reached over SPI. The driver declared a struct spi_transfer on the stack and populated only some of its fields before passing it to spi_sync()/spi_message, leaving members such as delay, cs_change, bits_per_word, speed_hz, and tx_nbits holding arbitrary stack garbage. While the input tag labels this 'Information Disclosure', the underlying defect is classic CWE-457 (Use of Uninitialized Variable) / CWE-908 (Use of Uninitialized Resource), which in a SPI controller path can cause both unpredictable bus behavior and potential exposure of adjacent kernel stack data via the populated transfer descriptor.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

The Linux kernel's pressure sensor driver for Honeywell MPRLS0025PA devices could leak sensitive system information to local users on affected infrastructure. Organizations operating IoT or embedded systems with these sensors should plan patching; however, exploitation likelihood is extremely low (0.02% per threat modeling), and no public exploit has been identified.

Business Impact: Medium
