AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions 3.x

Description The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service, specifically capability stripping, via a failed invocation of a system call. This can be demonstrated by using the chown command to remove a capability from certain programs, such as ping or Wireshark dumpcap.

Recommendations For Linux kernel version 3.x, consider restricting the use of the chown command to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the chown command to remove capabilities from sensitive programs.
