Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's phy: rockchip-samsung-dcphy component. A local attacker with access to the regmap debugfs interface could trigger an out-of-bounds read by attempting to dump registers. This occurs because the max_register value is incorrectly set, causing the system to read beyond the allocated memory region. Successful exploitation leads to a kernel crash (oops) and a subsequent deadlock of physical layer (PHY) operations, resulting in a denial of service.
