NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream linux-6.12 package and not the linux-6.12 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

i3c: dw: avoid shift-out-of-bounds when DAA assigns no devices

On an empty bus ENTDAA assigns nothing, so cmd->rx_len (the count of addresses left unassigned) equals master->maxdevs.

The GENMASK() index master->maxdevs - cmd->rx_len - 1 then becomes -1, which trips up UBSAN. This happens every time on boot on a Gigabyte/AMD server:

UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/i3c/master/dw-i3c-master.c:905:12
shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type &#39;long unsigned int&#39;
