  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  crypto: iaa - Fix out-of-bounds index in find_empty_iaa_compression_mode  The local variable 'i' is initialized with -EINVAL, but the for loop immediately overwrites it and -EINVAL is never returned.  If no empty compression mode can be found, the function would return the out-of-bounds index IAA_COMP_MODES_MAX, which would cause an invalid array access in add_iaa_compression_mode().  Fix both issues by returning either a valid index or -EINVAL.",
