Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: topology: fix possible overflow in amu_fie_setup() cpufreq_get_hw_max_freq() returns max frequency in kHz as *unsigned int*,
while freq_inv_set_max_ratio() gets passed this frequency in Hz as 'u64'.
Multiplying max frequency by 1000 can potentially result in overflow --
multiplying by 1000ULL instead should avoid that... Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static
analysis tool.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: arm64: topología: corrige posible desbordamiento en amu_fie_setup() cpufreq_get_hw_max_freq() devuelve la frecuencia máxima en kHz como *unsigned int*, mientras que freq_inv_set_max_ratio() pasa esta frecuencia en Hz como 'u64 '. Multiplicar la frecuencia máxima por 1000 puede potencialmente resultar en un desbordamiento; multiplicar por 1000ULL debería evitar eso...
