Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: vcnl4035: fix information leak in triggered buffer
The 'buffer' local array is used to push data to userspace from a
triggered buffer, but it does not set an initial value for the single
data element, which is an u16 aligned to 8 bytes. That leaves at least
4 bytes uninitialized even after writing an integer value with
regmap_read().
Initialize the array to zero before using it to avoid pushing
uninitialized information to userspace.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.4.132 < 5.4.290)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.10.50 < 5.10.234)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.12.17 < 5.13)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.13.2 < 5.15.177)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.125)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.72)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.10)
• linux linux kernel 6.13
