CVSS v3.1
7.8
Alta
| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 4.7.7
Description
The issue is related to the
aio mount function in fs/aio.c, which does not properly restrict execute access. This allows a local attacker to bypass intended SELinux W^X policy restrictions and gain privileges via an io setup system call.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.7.7, update to version 4.7.7 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
io setup system call to minimize the risk of exploitation.Correção
