CVE-2024-57805Public exploit

Audio firmware crash via premature link DMA release

Published Jan 11, 2025 · Updated May 23, 2026

Denial of service in Linux 6.11.6 through 6.12.7 and 6.13-rc1 through 6.13-rc4 allows local users to crash Intel SOF audio firmware. The STOP trigger in sound/soc/sof/intel/hda-dai.c releases a link DMA channel while its stream remains open, allowing another stream to claim it before restart. Triggering the race requires local audio access, Intel Sound Open Firmware hardware, and a second stream between stop and restart; channel mixing produces a firmware error or crash.
