TITLE

Linux of Linux Kernel Out-of-bounds read vulnerability in

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2024-027947

DESCRIPTION

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qedi: Fix crash while reading debugfs attribute The qedi_dbg_do_not_recover_cmd_read() function invokes sprintf() directly on a __user pointer, which results into the crash. To fix this issue, use a small local stack buffer for sprintf() and then call simple_read_from_buffer(), which in turns make the copy_to_user() call.

Linux of Linux Kernel Exists in an out-of-bounds read vulnerability.Information is obtained and service operation is interrupted (DoS) It may be in a state. The RUGGEDCOM RST2428P is a Layer 2 Ethernet switch based on SINEC OS with up to 28 non-blocking interfaces. SCALANCE X switches are used to connect industrial components such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human-machine interfaces (HMIs). Multiple vulnerabilities exist in third-party components prior to SIEMENS SINEC OS V3.2. These vulnerabilities could be exploited to corrupt values, leading to undefined behavior or security issues
