Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: fsl-edma: tracing: no ptr dereference during log output The fsl edma events store a pointer to a struct fsl_edma_engine in the ringbuffer and dereference it when a log entry is printed. At this time, the pointer may no longer be valid. Event injection can be used to trigger a crash: $ cd /sys/kernel/tracing $ echo 'value = 0' > events/fsl_edma/edma_writeb/inject $ cat trace The log output needs only edma->membase
