| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel version 2.6.31-rc1
Description
The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the
perf copy attr function, which can be triggered by providing "big size data" to the perf counter open system call. This can cause a denial of service (crash) and potentially allow the execution of arbitrary code.Recommendations
For Linux kernel version 2.6.31-rc1, consider applying a patch to fix the buffer overflow issue in the
perf copy attr function. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the perf counter open system call to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploit
