{"id":"CVE-2024-43825","summary":"iio: Fix the sorting functionality in iio_gts_build_avail_time_table","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\niio: Fix the sorting functionality in iio_gts_build_avail_time_table\n\nThe sorting in iio_gts_build_avail_time_table is not working as intended.\nIt could result in an out-of-bounds access when the time is zero.\n\nHere are more details:\n\n1. When the gts-\u003eitime_table[i].time_us is zero, e.g., the time\nsequence is `3, 0, 1`, the inner for-loop will not terminate and do\nout-of-bound writes. This is because once `times[j] \u003e new`, the value\n`new` will be added in the current position and the `times[j]` will be\nmoved to `j+1` position, which makes the if-condition always hold.\nMeanwhile, idx will be added one, making the loop keep running without\ntermination and out-of-bound write.\n2. If none of the gts-\u003eitime_table[i].time_us is zero, the elements\nwill just be copied without being sorted as described in the comment\n\"Sort times from all tables to one and remove duplicates\".\n\nFor more details, please refer to\nhttps://lore.kernel.org/all/6dd0d822-046c-4dd2-9532-79d7ab96ec05@gmail.com.","modified":"2026-04-16T00:04:49.793691558Z","published":"2024-08-17T09:21:45.215Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2024:3194-1","SUSE-SU-2024:3195-1","SUSE-SU-2024:3383-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20044-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20047-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/43xxx/CVE-2024-43825.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/31ff8464ef540785344994986a010031410f9ff3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5acc3f971a01be48d5ff4252d8f9cdb87998cdfb"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b5046de32fd1532c3f67065197fc1da82f0b5193"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/43xxx/CVE-2024-43825.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-43825"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"38416c28e16890b52fdd5eb73479299ec3f062f3"},{"fixed":"31ff8464ef540785344994986a010031410f9ff3"},{"fixed":"b5046de32fd1532c3f67065197fc1da82f0b5193"},{"fixed":"5acc3f971a01be48d5ff4252d8f9cdb87998cdfb"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2024-43825.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
