Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-10-21 18:30 – Updated: 2024-10-25 15:31

Details

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

wifi: rtw89: avoid reading out of bounds when loading TX power FW elements

Because the loop-expression will do one more time before getting false from cond-expression, the original code copied one more entry size beyond valid region.

Fix it by moving the entry copy to loop-body.

Severity

7.1 (High)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
