Source excerpt · Linux

Attack conditions

This breaks gluebi partitions because gluebi_get_device() uses container_of() and therefore requires the master MTD.

Automatic dependency matching is unavailable for this record. Use the product evidence and publisher’s instructions to check your installation.

What to do

Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.

No structured fix or remediation guidance is available here. Check the full source description and vendor’s latest advisory for a patch or workaround; do not assume another version is safe.

Public exploit evidence

Original source description

Read the full publisher description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mtd: core: call _get_device() with the master MTD

__get_mtd_device() calls the master's _get_device() callback with mtd, which may be a partition. __put_mtd_device() passes the master.

This breaks gluebi partitions because gluebi_get_device() uses container_of() and therefore requires the master MTD. Pass the master to _get_device(), matching _put_device().
