CVE-2021-42252 (GCVE-0-2021-42252)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2021-10-11 18:45 – Updated: 2024-08-04 03:30
VLAI
Summary
An issue was discovered in aspeed_lpc_ctrl_mmap in drivers/soc/aspeed/aspeed-lpc-ctrl.c in the Linux kernel before 5.14.6. Local attackers able to access the Aspeed LPC control interface could overwrite memory in the kernel and potentially execute privileges, aka CID-b49a0e69a7b1. This occurs because a certain comparison uses values that are not memory sizes.
