Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Multiple race conditions in the ADSPRPC drivers for Linux kernel 3.x can lead to denial of service or other unspecified impacts. Attackers can exploit the COMPAT_FASTRPC_IOCTL_INVOKE_FD ioctl call to trigger a zero-value write.

Risk Assessment

The organization may experience denial of service, affecting the availability of systems relying on the affected drivers. Potential unspecified impacts could also lead to further security issues.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update the Linux kernel to the latest version to mitigate these vulnerabilities. Additionally, monitor systems for unauthorized ioctl calls.
