CVE-2024-35984 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
There is no fixed version for Centos:7 kernel.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel package and not the kernel package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: smbus: fix NULL function pointer dereference
Baruch reported an OOPS when using the designware controller as target only. Target-only modes break the assumption of one transfer function always being available. Fix this by always checking the pointer in __i2c_transfer.
[wsa: dropped the simplification in core-smbus to avoid theoretical regressions]
