Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: cs35l41: Fix an out-of-bounds access in otp_packed_element_t The CS35L41_NUM_OTP_ELEM is 100, but only 99 entries are defined in the array otp_map_1/2[CS35L41_NUM_OTP_ELEM], this will trigger UBSAN to report a shift-out-of-bounds warning in the cs35l41_otp_unpack() since the last entry in the array will result in GENMASK(-1, 0). UBSAN reports this problem: UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in /home/hwang4/build/jammy/jammy/sound/soc/codecs/cs35l41-lib.c:836:8 shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'long unsigned int' CPU: 10 PID: 595 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 5.15.0-23-generic #23 Hardware name: LENOVO \x02MFG_IN_GO/\x02MFG_IN_GO, BIOS N3GET19W (1.00 ) 03/11/2022 Call Trace: <TASK> show_stack+0x52/0x58 dump_stack_lvl+0x4a/0x5f dump_stack+0x10/0x12 ubsan_epilogue+0x9/0x45
