The vulnerability of the devfreq_monitor() function in the drivers/devfreq/devfreq.c driver module allows a hacker to cause a system failure. This vulnerability relates to the dynamic frequency and voltage scaling support of the Linux kernel, which can be exploited by attackers.

The vulnerability of the devfreqmonitor function in the drivers/devfreq/devfreq.c driver module, which supports dynamic scaling of voltage and frequency DVFS for the Linux operating system’s kernel, stems from the execution of a loop with an unreachable exit condition. Exploiting this vulnerabili...

CVE-2023-52635

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel resulting from race conditions and a lack of synchronization in handling the delayed work timers in the devfreq component. This issue can lead to inconsistencies and a corruption of the timer list...

CVE-2023-52635

The CVE-2023-52635 entry concerns a Linux kernel devfreq timer race. Description: frequent governor switches (e.g., simple_ondemand and performance) on a devfreq device may race with timer cancellation and expiration, risking timer_list corruption when cancel_delayed_work_sync() is followed by ex...

CVE-2023-52635 PM / devfreq: Synchronize devfreq_monitor_[start/stop]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PM / devfreq: Synchronize devfreqmonitorstart/stop There is a chance if a frequent switch of the governor done in a loop result in timer list corruption where timer cancel being done from two place one from canceldelayedworksync...

CVE-2017-2698

The ddrdevfreq driver in versions earlier than GRA-UL00C00B197 has buffer overflow vulnerability. An attacker with the root privilege of the Android system can tricks a user into installing a malicious application on the smart phone, and send given parameter to smart phone to crash the system or...

Huawei Mate 8/P9 Phone Driver Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Huawei Mate 8, P9 is a smartphone product of Huawei, China. A buffer overflow security vulnerability exists in the ddrdevfreq driver of the Huawei Mate 8 and P9 phones due to a lack of parameter checking. An attacker who has gained root privileges on Android can trick the user into installing a...
