This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. 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:

pinctrl: pinconf-generic: Fully validate 'pinmux' property

The pinconf_generic_parse_dt_pinmux() assumes that the 'pinmux' property

is not empty when present. This might be not true. With that, the allocator

will give a special value in return and not NULL which lead to the crash

when trying to access that (invalid) memory. Fix that by fully validating

'pinmux' value, including its length.

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.
