GHSA-2XQ5-458F-5CJ8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-19 15:30 – Updated: 2024-09-19 15:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/perf: hisi: hns3: Fix out-of-bound access when valid event group
The perf tool allows users to create event groups through following cmd [1], but the driver does not check whether the array index is out of bounds when writing data to the event_group array. If the number of events in an event_group is greater than HNS3_PMU_MAX_HW_EVENTS, the memory write overflow of event_group array occurs.
Add array index check to fix the possible array out of bounds violation, and return directly when write new events are written to array bounds.
There are 9 different events in an event_group. [1] perf stat -e '{pmu/event1/, ... ,pmu/event9/}
