### Official description

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

ALSA: asihpi: Fix potential OOB array access

ASIHPI driver stores some values in the static array upon a response
from the driver, and its index depends on the firmware.  We shouldn't
trust it blindly.

This patch adds a sanity check of the array index to fit in the array
size.

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

Check this codebase for CVE-2024-50007 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2024-50007 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Debian Debian Linux, published on 21 Oct 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-2024-50007 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Debian Debian Linux. 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.
