Baixa
| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions 2.6.28 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to insufficient access control in the clone system call of the Linux kernel, allowing a local attacker to send signals to privileged parent processes from unprivileged child processes. This can be achieved by launching a new child process with the CLONE PARENT flag set and then letting this new process exit.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions 2.6.28 and earlier, consider restricting the use of the clone system call with the CLONE PARENT flag until a patch is available.
As a temporary workaround, limit the ability of unprivileged child processes to send signals to privileged parent processes.
