GHSA-22g7-8p7v-6gr8 PUBLISHED CVSS 6.699999809265137 MEDIUM

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 24, 2022

In drivers/pci/hotplug/rpadlpar_sysfs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.11.8, the RPA PCI Hotplug driver has a user-tolerable buffer overflow when writing a new device name to the driver from userspace, allowing userspace to write data to the kernel stack frame directly. This occurs because add_slot_store and remove_slot_store mishandle drc_name '\0' termination, aka CID-cc7a0bb058b8.
