| Vetor | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 4.5.3
Description
The issue allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service. This is due to the assoc array insert into terminal node function in lib/assoc array.c not checking whether a slot is a leaf, leading to an invalid pointer dereference and out-of-bounds read. The keyutils test suite demonstrates this issue.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.5.3, update to version 4.5.3 or later to resolve the issue.
Correção
DoS
Out of bounds Read
NULL Pointer Dereference
