| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 5.17.6
Description
The issue is related to a concurrency use-after-free flaw in the raw cmd ioctl function after deallocating raw cmd, which can lead to a denial of service. This flaw is located in the drivers/block/floppy.c component of the Linux kernel.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 5.17.6, update to version 5.17.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the raw cmd ioctl function until a patch is available. Restrict access to the drivers/block/floppy.c component to minimize the risk of exploitation.
