CVE-2022-49289
HIGHLinux Kernel 3.2-5.15.31, 5.16.0-5.16.17, 5.17.0 - Integer Overflow in User Access Validation
Title source: llmDescription
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uaccess: fix integer overflow on access_ok() Three architectures check the end of a user access against the address limit without taking a possible overflow into account. Passing a negative length or another overflow in here returns success when it should not. Use the most common correct implementation here, which optimizes for a constant 'size' argument, and turns the common case into a single comparison.
