## What is CVE-2024-42088?

CVE-2024-42088 is a high-severity vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 29 Jul 2024. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

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

ASoC: mediatek: mt8195: Add platform entry for ETDM1_OUT_BE dai link

Commit e70b8dd26711 ("ASoC: mediatek: mt8195: Remove afe-dai component
and rework codec link") removed the codec entry for the ETDM1_OUT_BE
dai link entirely instead of replacing it with COMP_EMPTY(). This worked
by accident as the remaining COMP_EMPTY() platform entry became the codec
entry, and the platform entry became completely empty, effectively the
same as COMP_DUMMY() since snd_soc_fill_dummy_dai() doesn't do anything
for platform entries.

This causes a KASAN out-of-bounds warning in mtk_soundcard_common_probe()
in sound/soc/mediatek/common/mtk-soundcard-driver.c:

	for_each_card_prelinks(card, i, dai_link) {
		if (adsp_node && !strncmp(dai_link->name, "AFE_SOF", strlen("AFE_SOF")))
			dai_link->platforms->of_node = adsp_node;
		else if (!dai_link->platforms->name && !dai_link->platforms->of_node)
			dai_link->platforms->of_node = platform_node;
	}

where the code expects the platforms array to have space for at least one entry.

Add an COMP_EMPTY() entry so that dai_link->platforms has space.

Weakness: CWE-129 (Improper Validation of Array Index)

## Fix prompt for AI coding agents

```text
Check this codebase for CVE-2024-42088 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2024-42088 is a high-severity vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 29 Jul 2024. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-42088 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
