How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 kernel-docs-html to version 6.12.0-160000.26.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-docs-html package and not the kernel-docs-html package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

media: dvb-usb: dtv5100: fix out-of-bounds in dtv5100_i2c_msg()

rlen value is a user-controlled value, but dtv5100_i2c_msg() does not check the size of the rlen value. Therefore, if it is set to a value larger than sizeof(st->data), an out-of-bounds vuln occurs for st->data.

Therefore, we need to add proper range checking to prevent this vuln.
