What is CVE-2024-53061?

A vulnerability in the S5P JPEG component of the Linux kernel has been identified that could lead to buffer overflows due to inadequate validation of input values. The existing code logic permits the 'word' variable to be less than 2, creating conditions where a buffer overflow may occur. This vulnerability has been addressed by implementing additional safeguards in the code and removing an extraneous assignment. Users are advised to update their Linux kernel to the latest version to mitigate any associated risks.
