CVE-2024-41037: Linux kernel may crash during suspend on Intel audio

CVE-2024-41037 · published 2 years ago
Summary

The Linux kernel version used in Debian and other distributions can encounter a crash when the computer goes into suspend mode while audio is playing on certain Intel sound hardware. The problem occurs because a needed audio link is cleared too early, causing the system to try to use a missing object. Install the latest kernel updates that include the fix to prevent this issue.

What to do
  • Update debian linux to version 6.9.10-1.
  • Update linux kernel to version 6.9.10.

Original advisory text
ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: fix null deref on system suspend entry
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: fix null deref on system suspend entry When system enters suspend with an active stream, SOF core calls hw_params_upon_resume(). On Intel platforms with HDA DMA used to manage the link DMA, this leads to call chain of hda_dsp_set_hw_params_upon_resume() -> hda_dsp_dais_suspend() -> hda_dai_suspend() -> hda_ipc4_post_trigger() A bug is hit in hda_dai_suspend() as hda_link_dma_cleanup() is run first, which clears hext_stream->link_substream, and then hda_ipc4_post_trigger() is called with a NULL snd_pcm_substream pointer.
