Overview

CVE-2024-58069 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on March 6, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

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

rtc: pcf85063: fix potential OOB write in PCF85063 NVMEM read

The nvmem interface supports variable buffer sizes, while the regmap

interface operates with fixed-size storage. If an nvmem client uses a

buffer size less than 4 bytes, regmap_read will write out of bounds

as it expects the buffer to point at an unsigned int.

Fix this by using an intermediary unsigned int to hold the value.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
