Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: iio: frequency: ad9832: fix division by zero in ad9832_calc_freqreg() In the ad9832_write_frequency() function, clk_get_rate() might return 0. This can lead to a division by zero when calling ad9832_calc_freqreg(). The check if (fout > (clk_get_rate(st->mclk) / 2)) does not protect against the case when fout is 0. The ad9832_write_frequency() function is called from ad9832_write(), and fout is derived from a text buffer, which can contain any value.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 2.6.39 < 5.4.285) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.229) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.171) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.116) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.60) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.11.7) • linux linux kernel 6.12
