Buffer overflow

In drivers/pci/hotplug/rpadlparsysfs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.11.8, the RPA PCI Hotplug driver has a user-tolerable buffer overflow when writing a new device name to the driver from userspace, allowing userspace to write data to the kernel stack frame directly. This occurs because...

CVE-2021-28972

CVE-2021-28972 affects the Linux kernel RPA PCI Hotplug driver (drivers/pci/hotplug/rpadlpar_sysfs.c) up to version 5.11.8. It is a user‑tolerable buffer overflow caused by improper handling of drc_name termination in add_slot_store/remove_slot_store, allowing userspace to write into the kernel s...
