Linux Kernel Compander Access Vulnerability in ASoC Codecs

Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ASoC codecs component has been addressed. The issue involved improper access to the compander data for the auxAUX interpolator, which does not utilize a compander. This oversight could lead to out-of-bounds access in the comp_enabled array. The vulnerability has been fixed by implementing a check to verify the presence of compander data before access.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability could result in out-of-bounds memory access, potentially leading to memory corruption or other unintended behavior.
