20) Use of uninitialized resource

EUVDB-ID: #VU95028

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 4.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-42225

CWE-ID: CWE-908 - Use of Uninitialized Resource

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to use of uninitialized resource within the mt7915_mcu_add_nested_subtlv() function in drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7915/mcu.c, within the mt76_connac_mcu_add_nested_tlv(), mt76_connac_mcu_hw_scan(), mt76_connac_mcu_sched_scan_req(), mt76_connac_mcu_update_gtk_rekey() and mt76_connac_mcu_set_wow_pattern() functions in drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt76_connac_mcu.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
