Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mailbox: Prevent out-of-bounds access in fw_mbox_index_xlate() Although it is guided that `#mbox-cells` must be at least 1, there are many instances of `#mbox-cells = <0>;` in the device tree. If that is the case and the corresponding mailbox controller does not provide `fw_xlate` and of_xlate` function pointers, `fw_mbox_index_xlate()` will be used by default and out-of-bounds accesses could occur due to lack of bounds check in that function.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 3.18.1 < 6.1.167) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.130) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.77) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.16) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.19 < 6.19.6) • linux linux kernel 3.18
