The vulnerability allows a local application to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the io_uring subcomponent in Kernel components. A local application can execute arbitrary code.

2) Incorrect authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-20572)

CWE-ID: CWE-863 - Incorrect Authorization

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a missing permission check within the verity_target() function in dm-verity-target.c. A local user can modify read-only files and escalate privileges on the system.

3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41218)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the dvb_demux_open() and dvb_dmxdev_release() function in drivers/media/dvb-core/dmxdev.c in Linux kernel. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

4) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3115)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the malidp_crtc_reset() function in drivers/gpu/drm/arm/malidp_crtc.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

5) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3111)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the free_charger_irq() function in drivers/power/supply/wm8350_power.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

6) Unchecked Return Value (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3108)

CWE-ID: CWE-252 - Unchecked Return Value

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to unchecked return value within the kfd_parse_subtype_iolink() function in drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_crat.c. A local user can crash the kernel.
