CVE-2026-68184CVE-2026-68184
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cdrom: fix stack out-of-bounds read in CDROMVOLCTRL
mmc_ioctl_cdrom_volume() first reads the audio control mode page into a
32-byte stack buffer with cgc->buflen set to 24. If the device reports a
block descriptor, the function increases cgc->buflen to include that
descriptor and reads the page again.
For CDROMVOLCTRL, the function then builds a MODE SELECT parameter list
by moving cgc->buffer forward by offset - 8 bytes. This drops the block
descriptor from the outgoing payload and leaves a new 8-byte mode
parameter header in front of the audio control page. However, cgc->buflen
is left unchanged.
With a standard 8-byte block descriptor, cgc->buffer points at buffer + 8
but cgc->buflen remains 32. cdrom_mode_select() therefore asks the low
level packet path to write 32 bytes from that adjusted pointer, reading 8
bytes past the end of the 32-byte stack buffer.
This is not hit by CDROMVOLREAD, and CDROMVOLCTRL
