Page history
Changes are dated when recorded; day views use the last saved version from that UTC day, and citations stay fixed.
CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

ALSA: us122l: Prevent write upgrades for read mappings
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: us122l: Prevent write upgrades for read mappings
The hwdep mmap callback rejects read-buffer mappings that are initially
writable, but leaves VM_MAYWRITE set on mappings created with PROT_READ.
A process that can open the hwdep node O_RDWR can later use mprotect() to
make the mapping writable.
The read allocation begins with struct usb_stream. Its read_size member is
used by the fault handler to decide which pages belong to the read buffer.
The read VMA intentionally remains expandable because pcm_usb_stream uses
mremap() after reading that size. Changing read_size first can therefore
map and access pages beyond the allocation. The same member is also
consumed by usb_stream_free(), where changing it can make
free_pages_exact() release pages outside the allocation.
Clear VM_MAYWRITE for read-buffer mappings after rejecting an initially
writable VMA. This keeps the separate output-buffer mapping writable while
preventing later permission upgrades.
