Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel versions prior to 4.13.6
Description:
A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/userfaultfd.c in the Linux kernel. The issue is related to the handling of fork failure when dealing with event messages. Failure to fork correctly can lead to a situation where a fork event will be removed from an already freed list of events with
userfaultfd ctx put(). This flaw may allow a remote attacker to impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.Recommendations:
For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.13.6, update to version 4.13.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
userfaultfd ctx put() function until a patch is available.Correção
