{"id":"AZL-57802","summary":"CVE-2024-35790 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.15.184.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusb: typec: altmodes/displayport: create sysfs nodes as driver's default device attribute group\n\nThe DisplayPort driver's sysfs nodes may be present to the userspace before\ntypec_altmode_set_drvdata() completes in dp_altmode_probe. This means that\na sysfs read can trigger a NULL pointer error by deferencing dp-\u003ehpd in\nhpd_show or dp-\u003elock in pin_assignment_show, as dev_get_drvdata() returns\nNULL in those cases.\n\nRemove manual sysfs node creation in favor of adding attribute group as\ndefault for devices bound to the driver. The ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() macro is\nnot used here otherwise the path to the sysfs nodes is no longer compliant\nwith the ABI.","modified":"2026-04-01T05:19:12.647787Z","published":"2024-05-17T13:15:58Z","upstream":["CVE-2024-35790"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-35790"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:2","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"5.15.184.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-57802.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
