The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in picolcd_debug_eeprom_read() when reading EEPROM data through the debugfs "eeprom" file. A local privileged user can use a crafted or spoofed picoLCD device to supply an oversized length value to disclose sensitive information.

The debugfs file is accessible only to root.
