"value": "AV:L - The bug is triggered by a plain write(2) syscall on the debugfs file /sys/kernel/debug/iio/<dev>/direct_reg_access, which requires local access to the system. There is no network-facing path to iio_debugfs_write_reg.\nAC:L - A single write() with an oversized count and a 79-byte userspace buffer deterministically produces the out-of-bounds write; the attacker fully controls the offset (80 up to MAX_RW_COUNT) with no race, no memory-layout dependency, and no retries needed.\nPR:L - Reaching the node needs only local access to a mounted debugfs, whose IIO sensor nodes are routinely relaxed to service/HAL accounts on Android, embedded and industrial deployments where IIO drivers live; consistent with prior kernel-CNA scoring of debugfs-reachable memory-safety bugs (CVE-2026-43380, CVE-2026-46190) this is Low rather than High.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the entire attack themselves with an open() plus write() on an already-present debugfs node; no victim action, mount, or file-open by another user is required.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to kernel memory managed by the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The attacker-controlled NUL write into the kernel stack can zero bytes of saved pointers, length, or index fields in adjacent frames, which is leverageable into arbitrary kernel-memory disclosure; per guidance, memory corruption exploitable for info disclosure scores High.\nI:H - This is a genuine out-of-bounds write with a fully attacker-controlled offset, allowing a zero byte to be placed over saved return addresses, stack canary bytes, or (without VMAP_STACK) adjacent kernel heap data, giving a control-flow-hijack primitive.\nA:H - Large count values drive the write into the VMAP_STACK guard page or corrupt saved stack state, producing an oops, double fault, or panic that can be triggered repeatedly."
