Technical description

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

ASoC: tas2562: Validate values for volume writes

tas2562_volume_control_put() does not do any validation of the control

value written by userspace, it uses it to look up a value in a fixed

size array which can easily be overflowed and then writes whatever value

it gets back to the device. Add validation that we are loading a value

we have in the array.

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.
