The vulnerability could be exploited to cause a system crash or potentially disclose information.

Recommendation

Install an updated Linux kernel with the fix that adds the missing firmware size check.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mfd: cs42l43: Sanity check firmware size Currently the code checks if a firmware was received, however it does not verify that the firmware size is larger than the firmware header. As the firmware pointer is dereferenced as a pointer to the header structure this could lead to an out of bounds memory access. Add the missing check.
