FKIE_CVE-2024-56769
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-01-06 17:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 08:12
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvb-frontends: dib3000mb: fix uninit-value in dib3000_write_reg
Syzbot reports [1] an uninitialized value issue found by KMSAN in
dib3000_read_reg().
Local u8 rb[2] is used in i2c_transfer() as a read buffer; in case
that call fails, the buffer may end up with some undefined values.
Since no elaborate error handling is expected in dib3000_write_reg(),
simply zero out rb buffer to mitigate the problem.
[1] Syzkaller report
dvb-usb: bulk message failed: -22 (6/0)
