Title
eeprom: at24: fix memory corruption race condition
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: eeprom: at24: fix memory corruption race condition If the eeprom is not accessible, an nvmem device will be registered, the read will fail, and the device will be torn down. If another driver accesses the nvmem device after the teardown, it will reference invalid memory. Move the failure point before registering the nvmem device.

There is no network exposure, and the exploitation interface is a local syscall rather than physical manipulation.\nAC:H - Exploitation requires the EEPROM\u0027s one-byte probe read to fail (an I2C/hardware condition a local unprivileged attacker cannot induce) while an nvmem consumer holds a reference across the devres teardown. The consumer half is deterministic on affected platforms (e.g. the NVMEM_ADD notifier in cp500.c fires inside nvmem_register itself), but the hardware-failure half is outside attacker control.\nPR:L - SPD and VAIO at24 chip data clear `root_only`, giving the nvmem and compat eeprom sysfs attributes mode 0444, so any unprivileged local account can invoke the freed `at24_read()` path with no capabilities, namespace tricks, or group membership.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed; the attacker simply reads the sysfs attribute, or an in-kernel consumer touches the stale nvmem device on its own.\nS:U - The use-after-free occurs in kernel memory and its impact is confined to the kernel\u0027s own security authority \u2014 no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - Reading the stale nvmem device dereferences a freed `at24_data`, and `at24_translate_offset()` indexes `client_regmaps[]` using an index bounded only by the freed `byte_len`, yielding out-of-bounds pointer fetches and regmap reads that return arbitrary reclaimed kernel memory into the user-visible read buffer.\nI:H - `at24_read()` calls `at24-\u003eread_post()` \u2014 a function pointer loaded from freed memory \u2014 and drives regmap op/lock tables out of a freed regmap, while `at24_write()` on a writable instance pushes attacker data through the same stale structures; heap grooming turns this into arbitrary write and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Even without grooming, the use-after-free dereferences freed regmap and device pointers and locks a freed mutex, reliably producing an oops or panic, and the dangling nvmem device persists so the crash can be triggered repeatedly."

There is no network exposure, and the exploitation interface is a local syscall rather than physical manipulation.\nAC:H - Exploitation requires the EEPROM\u0027s one-byte probe read to fail (an I2C/hardware condition a local unprivileged attacker cannot induce) while an nvmem consumer holds a reference across the devres teardown. The consumer half is deterministic on affected platforms (e.g. the NVMEM_ADD notifier in cp500.c fires inside nvmem_register itself), but the hardware-failure half is outside attacker control.\nPR:L - SPD and VAIO at24 chip data clear `root_only`, giving the nvmem and compat eeprom sysfs attributes mode 0444, so any unprivileged local account can invoke the freed `at24_read()` path with no capabilities, namespace tricks, or group membership.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed; the attacker simply reads the sysfs attribute, or an in-kernel consumer touches the stale nvmem device on its own.\nS:U - The use-after-free occurs in kernel memory and its impact is confined to the kernel\u0027s own security authority \u2014 no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - Reading the stale nvmem device dereferences a freed `at24_data`, and `at24_translate_offset()` indexes `client_regmaps[]` using an index bounded only by the freed `byte_len`, yielding out-of-bounds pointer fetches and regmap reads that return arbitrary reclaimed kernel memory into the user-visible read buffer.\nI:H - `at24_read()` calls `at24-\u003eread_post()` \u2014 a function pointer loaded from freed memory \u2014 and drives regmap op/lock tables out of a freed regmap, while `at24_write()` on a writable instance pushes attacker data through the same stale structures; heap grooming turns this into arbitrary write and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Even without grooming, the use-after-free dereferences freed regmap and device pointers and locks a freed mutex, reliably producing an oops or panic, and the dangling nvmem device persists so the crash can be triggered repeatedly."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
  • Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
  • Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
  • Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
  • Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
