The\nremainder of the copy back is the kmemdup()ed image of the caller's\nbuffer, so a device answering with a short data stage leaves the\ntrailing words of buf[] holding leftover kernel stack.  The only guard\nin the caller is err < 0, so those words are stored into status[].\n\nThey then reach user space: snd_rme_digiface_get_status_val() selects a\n16-bit halfword of status[] per the control's reg/mask, and the eight\nDigiface status controls together expose the whole 16-byte frame to an\nunprivileged reader of /dev/snd/controlC*.\n\nZero-initialise the buffer so a short read yields zeros instead of stack\nresidue.  This mirrors snd_rme_get_status1(), which already clears its\noutput word before the same kind of vendor read.\n\nDiscovered by XBOW, triaged by Baul Lee <baul.lee@xbow.com>"}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c"],"versions":[{"version":"611a96f6acf2e74fe28cb90908a9c183862348ce","lessThan":"b3a346d5c99dd73cf84711f2a43e42691990efd2","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"611a96f6acf2e74fe28cb90908a9c183862348ce","lessThan":"7ba01e0d3539d9cf0aef3e82938f1648147744cc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"611a96f6acf2e74fe28cb90908a9c183862348ce","lessThan":"98dbfbb38e297c25c5b0af4a9018d71ac25e8554","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"611a96f6acf2e74fe28cb90908a9c183862348ce","lessThan":"441aaad150c57edaf57ee482a79a3bf4c5b7e353","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"3089703ab71484a8b9a7641051181d11d60f870c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"50f63f11a6ddaa0d34574df72b3fa6ee257c057d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"6.10.14","lessThan":"6.11","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.11.3","lessThan":"6.12","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.12","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.12","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.103","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.44","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1.8","lessThanOrEqual":"7.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2","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":"6.12","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.103"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.12","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.44"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.12","versionEndExcluding":"7.1.8"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.12","versionEndExcluding":"7.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10.14"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.11.3"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b3a346d5c99dd73cf84711f2a43e42691990efd2"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7ba01e0d3539d9cf0aef3e82938f1648147744cc"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/98dbfbb38e297c25c5b0af4a9018d71ac25e8554"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/441aaad150c57edaf57ee482a79a3bf4c5b7e353"}],"title":"ALSA: usb-audio: fix stack info leak in RME Digiface status","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
