NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-debug-modules-extra package and not the kernel-uek-debug-modules-extra package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

cpu: hotplug: Bound hotplug states sysfs output

states_show() adds CPU hotplug state names into a single sysfs buffer using sprintf(). With enough registered states, this can write past the end of the PAGE_SIZE buffer.

Use sysfs_emit_at() so output is bounded.
