CVE-2024-58012: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-dai: Ensure DAI widget is valid during params

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-dai: Ensure DAI widget is valid during params Each cpu DAI should associate with a widget. However, the topology might not create the right number of DAI widgets for aggregated amps. And it will cause NULL pointer deference. Check that the DAI widget associated with the CPU DAI is valid to prevent NULL pointer deference due to missing DAI widgets in topologies with aggregated amps.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2024-58012 is a Linux kernel flaw in the Intel SOF audio path. A malformed or mismatched audio topology can trigger a null pointer dereference, causing a local denial of service. It is not described as a remote compromise or data theft issue.

Executive priority

Handle through normal kernel patch management, with higher priority for shared endpoints or environments with untrusted local users. The business risk is service disruption, not confirmed remote compromise.

Technical view

The bug is CWE-476 in ASoC SOF Intel hda-dai parameter handling. Some aggregated-amplifier topologies may not create the expected DAI widgets. If a CPU DAI lacks a valid associated widget, kernel code can dereference NULL. Stable fixes add validation before use.

Likely exposure

Exposure is most likely on Linux systems running affected kernels with Intel SOF HDA audio support and relevant audio topologies. The source bundle does not identify specific distributions, packaged kernel builds, or hardware models.

Exploitation context

The CVSS vector is local, low complexity, low privileges, no user interaction, with high availability impact only. The CVE is not in KEV, and the provided sources do not show active exploitation or a public exploit.

Researcher notes

Evidence supports a local availability flaw fixed in Linux stable commits. Distribution exposure, hardware-specific reachability, and exploitability details are not provided in the bundle, so validation should focus on kernel lineage and SOF HDA configuration.

Mitigation direction

  • Update to a vendor-supported kernel containing the referenced stable fixes.
  • Check Linux distribution advisories for backported fixes and package names.
  • Prioritize systems where local users can run code on affected hardware.
  • Treat distribution kernels as fixed only when vendor guidance confirms the backport.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory Linux kernel versions across affected endpoint and workstation fleets.
  • Confirm whether Intel SOF HDA audio drivers are enabled or loaded.
  • Map installed kernels to vendor advisories or the referenced stable commits.
  • Review crash logs for NULL pointer dereferences in the SOF HDA DAI path.
