Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: altmodes/displayport: fix pin_assignment_show
This patch fixes negative indexing of buf array in pin_assignment_show
when get_current_pin_assignments returns 0 i.e. no compatible pin
assignments are found.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
