CVE-2024-46743

Technical Description

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

of/irq: Prevent device address out-of-bounds read in interrupt map walk

When of_irq_parse_raw() is invoked with a device address smaller than

the interrupt parent node (from #address-cells property), KASAN detects

the following out-of-bounds read when populating the initial match table

(dyndbg="func of_irq_parse_* +p"):

OF: of_irq_parse_one: dev=/soc@0/picasso/watchdog, index=0

OF: parent=/soc@0/pci@878000000000/gpio0@17,0, intsize=2

OF: intspec=4

OF: of_irq_parse_raw: ipar=/soc@0/pci@878000000000/gpio0@17,0, size=2

OF: -> addrsize=3

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from linux. Update linux_kernel to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
