Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxbf-bootctl: use sysfs_emit_at() in secure_boot_fuse_state_show()
A warning is seen when running the latest kernel on a BlueField SOC:
[251.512704] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[251.512711] invalid sysfs_emit: buf:0000000003aa32ae
[251.512720] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 705264 at fs/sysfs/file.c:767 sysfs_emit+0xac/0xc8
The warning is triggered because the mlxbf-bootctl driver invokes
"sysfs_emit()" with a buffer pointer that is not aligned to the
start of the page. The driver should instead use "sysfs_emit_at()"
to support non-zero offsets into the destination buffer.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.14 < 6.14.4)
• linux linux kernel 6.15
