Severity ?
7.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: max9759: fix underflow in speaker_gain_control_put() Check for negative values of "priv->gain" to prevent an out of bounds access. The concern is that these might come from the user via: -> snd_ctl_elem_write_user() -> snd_ctl_elem_write() -> kctl->put()

it is not reachable from network packets or adjacent-link protocols.\\nAC:L - An attacker who can open the control device can reliably pass a negative gain value and force an out-of-bounds table index; no race or attacker-uncontrollable condition is required beyond the MAX9759 device being present.\\nPR:L - ALSA control nodes are usable by ordinary unprivileged users with audio-group or session ACL access (typical on desktops, SBCs, and embedded media devices), and the put path has no CAP_* checks requiring real root.\\nUI:N - The attacker opens the sound control device and issues SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_WRITE themselves; no separate victim action is required.\\nS:U - Impact is confined to the local kernel (OOB read / possible oops); this is not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other security-authority boundary cross.\\nC:H - A negative user value truncates to an attacker-chosen unsigned index into speaker_gain_table, yielding an unbounded out-of-bounds read of adjacent kernel memory; guidance treats such OOB reads as High confidentiality impact.\\nI:N - The bug is a read-only out-of-bounds access of bool table entries used solely as GPIO arguments; there is no OOB write, UAF, or control-flow hijack primitive.\\nA:H - Indexing far past the 4-entry static table (e.g. with -1 \\u2192 UINT_MAX) faults on unmapped memory and oops/panics the kernel, fully denying availability.\"}]}], \"affected\": [{\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"fa8d915172b8c10ec0734c4021e99e9705023b07\", \"lessThan\": \"a0f49d12547d45ea8b0f356a96632dd503941c1e\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"fa8d915172b8c10ec0734c4021e99e9705023b07\", \"lessThan\": \"71e60c170105d153e34d01766c1e4db26a4b24cc\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"fa8d915172b8c10ec0734c4021e99e9705023b07\", \"lessThan\": \"5a45448ac95b715173edb1cd090ff24b6586d921\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"fa8d915172b8c10ec0734c4021e99e9705023b07\", \"lessThan\": \"baead410e5db49e962a67fffc17ac30e44b50b7c\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"fa8d915172b8c10ec0734c4021e99e9705023b07\", \"lessThan\": \"f114fd6165dfb52520755cc4d1c1dfbd447b88b6\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"fa8d915172b8c10ec0734c4021e99e9705023b07\", \"lessThan\": \"4c907bcd9dcd233da6707059d777ab389dcbd964\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"sound/soc/codecs/max9759.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\"}, {\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"4.17\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"0\", \"lessThan\": \"4.17\", \"versionType\": \"semver\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"4.19.228\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"4.19.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.4.178\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"5.4.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.10.99\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"5.10.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.15.22\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"5.15.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.16.8\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"5.16.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.17\", \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"sound/soc/codecs/max9759.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\"}], \"references\": [{\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a0f49d12547d45ea8b0f356a96632dd503941c1e\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/71e60c170105d153e34d01766c1e4db26a4b24cc\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5a45448ac95b715173edb1cd090ff24b6586d921\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/baead410e5db49e962a67fffc17ac30e44b50b7c\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f114fd6165dfb52520755cc4d1c1dfbd447b88b6\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4c907bcd9dcd233da6707059d777ab389dcbd964\"}], \"x_generator\": {\"engine\": \"bippy-1.2.0\"}, \"descriptions\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\\n\\nASoC: max9759: fix underflow in speaker_gain_control_put()\\n\\nCheck for negative values of \\\"priv-\u003egain\\\" to prevent an out of bounds\\naccess.
