CVE-2026-74291In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: topology: Check PCM and DAI name strings before use
Topology objects store several PCM and DAI names in fixed-size UAPI
arrays. Other topology parser paths validate these fields with bounded
strnlen() checks before using them as C strings, but the PCM and DAI
paths still pass some fixed-size arrays directly to strlen(),
devm_kstrdup(), DAI lookup, and diagnostic prints.
A malformed topology blob with a non-NUL-terminated PCM, DAI, or stream
capability name can therefore make the parser read past the end of the
fixed-size field.
Reject unterminated PCM and DAI name fields before consuming them as C
strings.
