Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-08-16 12:01:47 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

comedi: pcl812: Fix bit shift out of bounds

When checking for a supported IRQ number, the following test is used:

	if ((1 << it->options[1]) & board->irq_bits) {

However, `it->options[i]` is an unchecked `int` value from userspace, so
the shift amount could be negative or out of bounds.  Fix the test by
requiring `it->options[1]` to be within bounds before proceeding with
the original test.  Valid `it->options[1]` values that select the IRQ
will be in the range [1,15]. The value 0 explicitly disables the use of
interrupts.
