CVE-2022-50142

HIGHNVD 7.87.8—

7.8

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

intel_th: msu: Fix vmalloced buffers

After commit f5ff79fddf0e ("dma-mapping: remove CONFIG_DMA_REMAP") there's a chance of DMA buffer getting allocated via vmalloc(), which messes up the mmapping code:

> RIP: msc_mmap_fault [intel_th_msu] > Call Trace: > > __do_fault > do_fault ...

Fix this by accounting for vmalloc possibility.

CVSS v3: 7.8
EG Score: 7.8(medium)
