Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: sched: sch_multiq: fix possible OOB write in multiq_tune() q->bands will be assigned to qopt->bands to execute subsequent code logic
after kmalloc. So the old q->bands should not be used in kmalloc.
Otherwise, an out-of-bounds write will occur.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net: sched: sch_multiq: corrige posible escritura OOB en multiq_tune() q->bands se asignarán a qopt->bands para ejecutar la lógica de código posterior después de kmalloc. Por lo tanto, las antiguas q->bands no deberían usarse en kmalloc. De lo contrario, se producirá una escritura fuera de los límites.

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's multiq qdisc functionality. This vulnerability allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
