Linux Kernel WC938X Codecs Array Out-of-Bounds Vulnerability

Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ASoC codecs for WC938X has been addressed. The issue involved accessing enums as integers, which led to out-of-bounds array access on AArch64 platforms where the size of long is 8 bytes, compared to the 4-byte size of the enum. The vulnerability has been fixed by using enumerated items instead of integers.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to out-of-bounds array access, potentially causing memory corruption or other unintended behavior.
