NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-tools package and not the kernel-tools package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
isdn: cpai: check ctr->cnr to avoid array index out of bound
The cmtp_add_connection() would add a cmtp session to a controller and run a kernel thread to process cmtp.
__module_get(THIS_MODULE);
session->task = kthread_run(cmtp_session, session, "kcmtpd_ctr_%d",
session->num);
During this process, the kernel thread would call detach_capi_ctr() to detach a register controller. if the controller was not attached yet, detach_capi_ctr() would trigger an array-index-out-bounds bug.
