UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38330: High severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel packages are identified as affected?

The listed packages are ubuntu/linux-riscv, ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge, ubuntu/linux-azure-fde, ubuntu/linux-realtime, ubuntu/linux-aws-5.0, ubuntu/linux-aws-5.3, ubuntu/linux-azure, and ubuntu/linux-azure-5.3.

Q: What access would an attacker need according to the severity vector?

The vector indicates local access is required and that an attacker needs low privileges. No user interaction is required.

Q: What is the potential security impact?

The severity vector rates confidentiality and availability impact as high, while integrity impact is listed as none. The reported condition is an out-of-bounds memory read in the cs_dsp KUnit test control-cache code.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: csdsp: Fix OOB memory read access in KUnit test (ctl cache) KASAN reported out of bounds access - csdspctlcacheinitmultipleoffsets(). The code uses mockcoefftemplate.lengthbytes (4 bytes) for register value allocations. But later, this length is set to 8 bytes which causes test code failures. As fix, just remove the lenght override, keeping the original value 4 for all operations.
