A malicious USB peripheral alone cannot trigger the faulty copy.\nAC:L - A transfer of at least 32 attacker-controlled bytes deterministically produces the one-byte overflow without a race. The attacker controls the overflowing byte and can repeat requests or perform heap grooming.\nPR:L - Binding spidev normally requires administrator provisioning, but the transfer path has no capability check. Once device-node access is granted, an ordinary unprivileged local user can trigger the bug.\nUI:N - The attacker directly opens the device and submits the transfer; no action by another user is required.\nS:U - The vulnerable SPI driver and the affected kernel memory share the same kernel security authority. This is a conventional local kernel privilege-escalation condition rather than a VM or IOMMU boundary escape.\nC:H - The out-of-bounds access can corrupt an adjacent slab object, potentially enabling control-flow hijacking and arbitrary kernel-memory disclosure. Under the required higher-severity treatment of exploitable memory corruption, confidentiality impact is high.\nI:H - For transfers of at least 32 bytes, the attacker controls the byte written beyond ch341->tx_buf. Corruption of adjacent allocator metadata or kernel objects can plausibly yield arbitrary writes or kernel code execution.\nA:H - The adjacent-object corruption can damage allocator metadata or devres list pointers, causing a kernel oops or panic. The triggering transfer can be submitted repeatedly."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/spi/spi-ch341.c"],"versions":[{"version":"8846739f52afa07e63395c80227dc544f54bd7b1","lessThan":"cad6c0fd6f3c0e76a1f75df4bce3b08a13f08974","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8846739f52afa07e63395c80227dc544f54bd7b1","lessThan":"ea1e43966cd03098fcd5f0d72e6c2901d45fa08d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8846739f52afa07e63395c80227dc544f54bd7b1","lessThan":"81841da1f30f66a850cc8796d99ba330aad9d696","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8846739f52afa07e63395c80227dc544f54bd7b1","lessThan":"545d1287e40a55242f6ab68bcc1ba3b74088b1bc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/spi/spi-ch341.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.11","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.11","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.63","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.17.13","lessThanOrEqual":"6.17.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.2","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.19","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.63"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.17.13"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.19"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cad6c0fd6f3c0e76a1f75df4bce3b08a13f08974"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ea1e43966cd03098fcd5f0d72e6c2901d45fa08d"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/81841da1f30f66a850cc8796d99ba330aad9d696"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/545d1287e40a55242f6ab68bcc1ba3b74088b1bc"}],"title":"spi: ch341: fix out-of-bounds memory access in ch341_transfer_one","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
