Upgrade SLES:15.6 kernel-syms to version 6.4.0-150600.23.7.1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-syms package and not the kernel-syms package as distributed by SLES.
See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: nci: Fix uninit-value in nci_dev_up and nci_ntf_packet
syzbot reported the following uninit-value access issue [1][2]:
nci_rx_work() parses and processes received packet. When the payload length is zero, each message type handler reads uninitialized payload and KMSAN detects this issue. The receipt of a packet with a zero-size payload is considered unexpected, and therefore, such packets should be silently discarded.
This patch resolved this issue by checking payload size before calling each message type handler codes.
