CVE-2014-5206
CVSS v2.0
7.2
Alta
| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 3.16.2
Description
The issue allows local users to bypass an intended read-only restriction and defeat certain sandbox protection mechanisms. This is achieved via a "mount -o remount" command within a user namespace, exploiting the fact that the do remount function in fs/namespace.c does not maintain the MNT LOCK READONLY bit across a remount of a bind mount.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 3.16.2, update to version 3.16.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the "mount -o remount" command within user namespaces to minimize the risk of exploitation.
