It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-49509 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49509/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49509/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-49509","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49509/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-49509","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49509","GHSA-qj3c-cr7p-g92q","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2022-49509","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49509"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the max9286 driver causes a kernel oops when the module is removed, leading to a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-668","name":"Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmedia: i2c: max9286: fix kernel oops when removing module\n\nWhen removing the max9286 module we get a kernel oops:\n\nUnable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 000000aa00000094\nMem abort info:\n  ESR = 0x96000004\n  EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits\n  SET = 0, FnV = 0\n  EA = 0, S1PTW = 0\n  FSC = 0x04: level 0 translation fault\nData abort info:\n  ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000004\n  CM = 0, WnR = 0\nuser pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp=0000000880d85000\n[000000aa00000094] pgd=0000000000000000, p4d=0000000000000000\nInternal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] PREEMPT SMP\nModules linked in: fsl_jr_uio caam_jr rng_core libdes caamkeyblob_desc caamhash_desc caamalg_desc crypto_engine max9271 authenc crct10dif_ce mxc_jpeg_encdec\nCPU: 2 PID: 713 Comm: rmmod Tainted: G         C        5.15.5-00057-gaebcd29c8ed7-dirty #5\nHardware name: Freescale i.MX8QXP MEK (DT)\npstate: 80000005 (Nzcv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)\npc : i2c_mux_del_adapters+0x24/0xf0\nlr : max9286_remove+0x28/0xd0 [max9286]\nsp : ffff800013a9bbf0\nx29: ffff800013a9bbf0 x28: ffff00080b6da940 x27: 0000000000000000\nx26: 0000000000000000 x25: 0000000000000000 x24: 0000000000000000\nx23: ffff000801a5b970 x22: ffff0008048b0890 x21: ffff800009297000\nx20: ffff0008048b0f70 x19: 000000aa00000064 x18: 0000000000000000\nx17: 0000000000000000 x16: 0000000000000000 x15: 0000000000000000\nx14: 0000000000000014 x13: 0000000000000000 x12: ffff000802da49e8\nx11: ffff000802051918 x10: ffff000802da4920 x9 : ffff000800030098\nx8 : 0101010101010101 x7 : 7f7f7f7f7f7f7f7f x6 : fefefeff6364626d\nx5 : 8080808000000000 x4 : 0000000000000000 x3 : 0000000000000000\nx2 : ffffffffffffffff x1 : ffff00080b6da940 x0 : 0000000000000000\nCall trace:\n i2c_mux_del_adapters+0x24/0xf0\n max9286_remove+0x28/0xd0 [max9286]\n i2c_device_remove+0x40/0x110\n __device_release_driver+0x188/0x234\n driver_detach+0xc4/0x150\n bus_remove_driver+0x60/0xe0\n driver_unregister+0x34/0x64\n i2c_del_driver+0x58/0xa0\n max9286_i2c_driver_exit+0x1c/0x490 [max9286]\n __arm64_sys_delete_module+0x194/0x260\n invoke_syscall+0x48/0x114\n el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0xd4/0xfc\n do_el0_svc+0x2c/0x94\n el0_svc+0x28/0x80\n el0t_64_sync_handler+0xa8/0x130\n el0t_64_sync+0x1a0/0x1a4\n\nThe Oops happens because the I2C client data does not point to\nmax9286_priv anymore but to v4l2_subdev.
