Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Validate string descriptors The string descriptor length includes a two-byte header while the UTF-16 payload starts after it. utf16s_to_utf8s() expects a count of UTF-16 code units, not bytes. Passing the payload byte count can make it read beyond the descriptor buffer. Validate that the payload has an even byte count, pass a code-unit count to the converter, and allocate sufficient UTF-8 output space. The raw string buffer starts after the descriptor header but its size is bLength. Copying bLength bytes from that pointer can read beyond the response buffer. Allocate a zeroed bLength-sized buffer and copy only the UTF-16 payload. This preserves the raw buffer size consumed by the RPMB device-ID ABI while avoiding the overread.

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.

  • 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.
