Vulnerability CVE-2024-47663
Published: 2024-10-09

Description:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

staging: iio: frequency: ad9834: Validate frequency parameter value

In ad9834_write_frequency() clk_get_rate() can return 0. In such case
ad9834_calc_freqreg() call will lead to division by zero. Checking
'if (fout > (clk_freq / 2))' doesn't protect in case of 'fout' is 0.
ad9834_write_frequency() is called from ad9834_write(), where fout is
taken from text buffer, which can contain any value.

Modify parameters checking.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
