Does this affect you?

It affects Linux. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: fsl-edma: tracing: no ptr dereference during log output The fsl edma events store a pointer to a struct fsl_edma_engine in the ringbuffer and dereference it when a log entry is printed. At this time, the pointer may no longer be valid. Event injection can be used to trigger a crash: $ cd /sys/kernel/tracing $ echo 'value = 0' > events/fsl_edma/edma_writeb/inject $ cat trace The log output needs only edma->membase. Add a membase field at the end of the event and use the new field for log output. Keep the existing fields for backward compatibility.
