| Vetor | AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 3.19.2
Description
A race condition issue exists in the handle to path function in fs/fhandle.c, allowing local users to bypass intended size restrictions. This is achieved by changing the
handle bytes value of a file handle during the execution of the handle to path function, potentially triggering read operations on additional memory locations.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 3.19.2, update to version 3.19.2 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the handle to path function in fs/fhandle.c to minimize the risk of exploitation.
