DescriptionCVE.org

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

firmware: arm_scmi: Fix OOB in scmi_power_name_get()

scmi_power_name_get() does not validate the domain number passed by the external caller, which may lead to an out-of-bounds access.

Fix this by returning "unknown" for invalid domains, like scmi_reset_name_get() does.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds memory access in the Linux kernel's ARM SCMI firmware subsystem allows a local low-privileged attacker on ARM-based hardware to trigger kernel memory corruption via the scmi_power_name_get() function, which fails to validate the domain number supplied by external callers. Affected kernel versions span from the introduction commit 76a6550990e2 through multiple stable branches, with patches backported to LTS lines 5.15, 6.1, 6.6, 6.12, and 6.18. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires: (1) an ARM-based system - x86 and non-ARM platforms are entirely unaffected; (2) a Linux kernel version at or after commit 76a6550990e296a7acbb4d33201c9740be912a8c (kernel 4.17) and before the respective branch fix commit; (3) the ARM SCMI protocol driver compiled and loaded (CONFIG_ARM_SCMI_PROTOCOL enabled) with power domain support active, meaning the target system must have SCMI-capable firmware actively communicating with the kernel; (4) local shell access with at least low-privilege user rights (CVSS PR:L), sufficient to invoke the affected SCMI power domain name query path. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment CVSS 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) models worst-case kernel OOB impact with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise, but this score warrants scrutiny against other available signals. … 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 Upgrade to a patched Linux kernel version: 7.2 or 7.1.5 for mainline/current stable, or for LTS branches: 6.18.40, 6.12.97, 6.6.145, 6.1.178, or 5.15.212. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all ARM-based Linux systems and identify deployments running vulnerable LTS kernel versions (5.15, 6.1, 6.6, 6.12, 6.18 prior to patched releases). …
