In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ata: libata-transport: fix error handling in ata_tlink_add() In ata_tlink_add(), the return value of transport_add_device() is not checked. As a result, it causes null-ptr-deref while removing the module, because transport_remove_device() is called to remove the device that was not added.

Grounded briefings

Catalog interpretations for three audiences. Each brief cites ingested metadata and the original advisories below. They are not independent research and they do not invent exploit steps.

Executive

CVE-2022-49824 is a none public vulnerability record for Linux Linux. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. This summary is a catalog interpretation of the ingested metadata and cites the original advisories below.

System administrator

Identify whether Linux Linux is in your estate, then compare installed versions with the affected ranges. Affected packages or ranges on record: Linux Linux d9027470b88631d0956ac37cdadfdeb9cdcf2c99 <d5234480ca822bdcf03fe4d6a590ddcb854558f7 (d9027470b88631d0956ac37cdadfdeb9cdcf2c99 <d5234480ca822bdcf03fe4d6a590ddcb854558f7). Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. Prefer the vendor or distribution advisory linked in Sources before changing production systems. This is a catalog interpretation, not a runbook.

Security analyst

Signals on file: CVSS 0.0, EPSS 22.0%. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Sources contributing to this record: cve_org, euvd. Public exploit references, when present, are outbound links only and are not proof of active exploitation. This is a catalog interpretation of stored metadata.
