The vulnerability of the start_power_clamp() function in the drivers/thermal/intel/intel_powerclamp.c file of the Linux kernel temperature control driver allows a hacker to cause a system failure.

The vulnerability of the startpowerclamp function in the drivers/thermal/intel/intelpowerclamp.c file of the Linux kernel temperature control driver is related to improper elimination of certain elements in the data sent to the client. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to caus...

Unity Linux 20.1050e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-021546)

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-021546 advisory. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal: intelpowerclamp: Use getcpu instead of smpprocessorid to avoid crash When CPU 0 is offli...

EUVD-2022-55660

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: fhid: fix fhidg lifetime vs cdev The embedded struct cdev does not have its lifetime correctly tied to the enclosing struct fhidg, so there is a use-after-free if /dev/hidgN is held open while the gadget is deleted...

CVE-2022-50494 thermal: intel_powerclamp: Use get_cpu() instead of smp_processor_id() to avoid crash

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal: intelpowerclamp: Use getcpu instead of smpprocessorid to avoid crash When CPU 0 is offline and intelpowerclamp is used to inject idle, it generates kernel BUG: BUG: using smpprocessorid in preemptible 00000000 code:...

kernel: thermal: intel_powerclamp: Use get_cpu() instead of smp_processor_id() to avoid crash

A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel thermal/intelpowerclamp driver. When CPU 0 is offline and the intelpowerclamp driver attempts to inject idle cycles, the code incorrectly calls smpprocessorid preemptively, which triggers a kernel BUG. This occurs because the function...
