NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gfs2-kmp-default package and not the gfs2-kmp-default package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 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-&gt;task = kthread_run(cmtp_session, session, &#34;kcmtpd_ctr_%d&#34;,
                            session-&gt;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.
