CVSS v3.1

5.5

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions through 5.13.7
Description The issue allows an unprivileged BPF program to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a Speculative Store Bypass side-channel attack. This occurs because a certain preempting store operation does not necessarily occur before a store operation that has an attacker-controlled value. The vulnerability is related to information disclosure through inconsistency.
Recommendations For Linux kernel versions through 5.13.7, update to a version later than 5.13.7 to resolve the issue. At the moment, there is no information about additional mitigation measures for this specific vulnerability.
