CVE-2024-49928
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: avoid reading out of bounds when loading TX power FW elements
Because the loop-expression will do one more time before getting false from cond-expression, the original code copied one more entry size beyond valid region.
Fix it by moving the entry copy to loop-body.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.1
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.24%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 14
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution60 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact70 %
AV:L/PR:L sin UI indica escalada local (T1068). Buffer over-read en firmware WiFi permite ejecución de código o DoS; confianza moderada por descripción técnica abstracta sin detalles de explotabilidad.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
