AnalysisCVE.org

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

hwmon: (ltc4282) Clamp negative current limits

When a negative value is passed to ltc4282_write_curr(), the signed long val is cast directly to u64:

drivers/hwmon/ltc4282.c:ltc4282_write_curr() { /* need to pass it in millivolt */ u32 in = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST_ULL((u64)val * st->rsense, DECA * MICRO); ... }

This cast converts negative inputs into large positive values. The subsequent division result overflows the u32 in variable, truncating to a pseudo-random positive value. When this is passed to ltc4282_write_voltage_byte(), it is clamped to the maximum limit instead of zero.

Clamp val to 0 and to the maximum supported upper limit before the cast and assign the result to a 64-bit temporary variable before the division to avoid the underflow and an also possible overflow.

What every action level means
Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.
Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.
This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.
This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.
Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
