CVE-2024-35995

5.5 · MEDIUM
Published May 20, 2024 linux EPSS 0.21% (11th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2024-35995 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting linux linux_kernel. It was published on May 20, 2024 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ACPI: CPPC: Use access_width over bit_width for system memory accesses

To align with ACPI 6.3+, since bit_width can be any 8-bit value, it

cannot be depended on to be always on a clean 8b boundary. This was

uncovered on the Cobalt 100 platform.
