CVE-2026-64504

Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's bmc150 accelerometer driver. A malicious or malfunctioning accelerometer device, or an attacker tampering with the I2C/SPI bus, can report an excessively large number of FIFO frames. This improper handling of the frame count leads to a stack out-of-bounds write, which could allow for arbitrary code execution or a denial of service (DoS) on the affected system.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)

Integrity

Technical Impact: Modify Memory; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands

Availability

Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart

Attempting to access out-of-range, invalid, or unauthorized memory could cause the product to crash.

Other

Technical Impact: Unexpected State
