CVE-2022-48657

Disclosure Date: April 28, 2024
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

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

arm64: topology: fix possible overflow in amu_fie_setup()

cpufreq_get_hw_max_freq() returns max frequency in kHz as unsigned int,
while freq_inv_set_max_ratio() gets passed this frequency in Hz as ‘u64’.
Multiplying max frequency by 1000 can potentially result in overflow —
multiplying by 1000ULL instead should avoid that…

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static
analysis tool.
