CVE-2024-24856

The memory allocation function ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED does not guarantee a successful allocation, but the subsequent code directly dereferences the pointer that receives it, which may lead to null pointer dereference. To fix this issue, a null pointer check should be added. If it is null, return exception code AE_NO_MEMORY.

Summary
  • (es) La función de asignación de memoria ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED no garantiza una asignación exitosa, pero el código posterior desreferencia directamente el puntero que la recibe, lo que puede provocar una desreferencia del puntero nulo.
