Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: dvb-frontends: tda10048: Fix integer overflow state->xtal_hz can be up to 16M, so it can overflow a 32 bit integer when multiplied by pll_mfactor. Create a new 64 bit variable to hold the calculations. A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's tda10048 driver in the tda10048_set_if() function, where the improperly sized variable state->xtal_hz can lead to an integer overflow during a multiplication operation. This issue can lead to an incorrect value calculation impacting the driver and the dvb system's functionality.
