CVE-2022-49946

Description

From CVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: bcm: rpi: Prevent out-of-bounds access The while loop in raspberrypi_discover_clocks() relies on the assumption that the id of the last clock element is zero. Because this data comes from the Videocore firmware and it doesn't guarantuee such a behavior this could lead to out-of-bounds access. So fix this by providing a sentinel element.

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
