CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects the Linux kernel's handling of the ADS1298 analog-to-digital converter, specifically in the bounds checking of the pga_settings index, which can lead to out-of-bounds array access. This flaw could potentially allow an attacker to exploit the system, resulting in undefined behavior or crashes. Organizations using Linux systems that incorporate the ADS1298 should prioritize patching this vulnerability to mitigate risks associated with this high-severity issue.
Original NVD Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: adc: ti-ads1298: add bounds check to pga_settings index ads1298_pga_settings has 7 elements but ADS1298_MASK_CH_PGA can yield values 0-7. If it yields a value >= 7, this causes an out-of-bounds array access. Add a bounds check and return -EINVAL if the index is out of range. Note that the remaining value b111 is reserved so should not be seen in a correctly functioning system.
