AI-suggested
A fix for this vulnerability has been implemented in the affected Linux kernel versions. Users should update to patched versions of the linux-hwe-edge kernel to remediate this issue. Since this is not a cloud service, manual patching is required. Check the vendor or distribution advisory for the exact patched kernel versions and apply updates accordingly.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's SCSI bsg interface allowed an overrun of a user response buffer due to improper handling of sense data length. The kernel copied the sense length to the user buffer without respecting the maximum response length, potentially leading to buffer overflow. This issue affects specific versions of the linux-hwe-edge kernel and has been resolved.
