5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2024-33619
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efi: libstub: only free priv.runtime_map when allocated
priv.runtime_map is only allocated when efi_novamap is not set.
Otherwise, it is an uninitialized value. In the error path, it is freed
unconditionally. Avoid passing an uninitialized value to free_pool.
Free priv.runtime_map only when it was allocated.
This bug was discovered and resolved using Coverity Static Analysis
Security Testing (SAST) by Synopsys, Inc.
