Descriptions

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

tpm: efi: Use local variable for calculating final log size

When tpm_read_log_efi is called multiple times, which happens when
one loads and unloads a TPM2 driver multiple times, then the global
variable efi_tpm_final_log_size will at some point become a negative
number due to the subtraction of final_events_preboot_size occurring
each time. Use a local variable to avoid this integer underflow.

The following issue is now resolved:

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: tpm: efi: use la variable local para calcular el tamaño del registro final Cuando se llama a tpm_read_log_efi varias veces, lo que sucede cuando uno carga y descarga un controlador TPM2 varias veces, entonces la variable global efi_tpm_final_log_size en algún momento se convierte en un número negativo debido a la resta de final_events_preboot_size que ocurre cada vez. Utilice una variable local para evitar este desbordamiento de enteros.
