Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel up to 6.18.34/7.0.11. It has been declared as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function bmp580_trigger_handler of the file drivers/iio/pressure/bmp280-core.c of the component Bmp280 Pressure Driver. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a information disclosure vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-200. The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: pressure: bmp280: fix stack leak in bmp580 trigger handler bmp580_trigger_handler() declares its scan buffer on the stack without an initializer and then memcpy()s 3 bytes of 24-bit sensor data into each 4-byte __le32 field. The high byte of comp_temp and comp_press is left uninitialized, and the channel storagebits is 32, so two bytes of stack are pushed to userspace per scan. This is a regression from when the buffer lived in the private data, the move to a stack-local struct dropped the implicit zeroing. bme280_trigger_handler() was fixed up to handle this bug, but this driver was not fixed because there was no padding hole, but rather a short-fill issue. Fix this all by just zero-initializing the structure on the stack.

The advisory is available at git.kernel.org. This vulnerability was named CVE-2026-63965 since 07/19/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy. The attack can be initiated remotely. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit. The structure of the vulnerability defines a possible price range of USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 07/19/2026). This vulnerability is assigned to T1592 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.

Upgrading to version 6.18.35 or 7.0.12 eliminates this vulnerability.
