Found In Version: 10.21.20.1
Fix Version: 10.21.20.25
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 21
Component/s: Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: iio: frequency: ad9832: fix division by zero in ad9832_calc_freqreg()
In the ad9832_write_frequency() function, clk_get_rate() might return 0.
This can lead to a division by zero when calling ad9832_calc_freqreg().
The check if (fout > (clk_get_rate(st->mclk) / 2)) does not protect
against the case when fout is 0. The ad9832_write_frequency() function
is called from ad9832_write(), and fout is derived from a text buffer,
which can contain any value.
