{"id":"AZL-62845","summary":"CVE-2025-21870 affecting package kernel 6.6.126.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nASoC: SOF: ipc4-topology: Harden loops for looking up ALH copiers\n\nOther, non DAI copier widgets could have the same  stream name (sname) as\nthe ALH copier and in that case the copier-\u003edata is NULL, no alh_data is\nattached, which could lead to NULL pointer dereference.\nWe could check for this NULL pointer in sof_ipc4_prepare_copier_module()\nand avoid the crash, but a similar loop in sof_ipc4_widget_setup_comp_dai()\nwill miscalculate the ALH device count, causing broken audio.\n\nThe correct fix is to harden the matching logic by making sure that the\n1. widget is a DAI widget - so dai = w-\u003eprivate is valid\n2. the dai (and thus the copier) is ALH copier","modified":"2026-04-01T05:20:09.263392Z","published":"2025-03-27T14:15:48Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-21870"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-21870"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.126.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-62845.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
