| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A size overflow issue has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically in the libbpf component when handling ringbuf mmap. The maximum size of ringbuf is 2GB on x86-64 hosts, which can cause an overflow of u32 when mapping producer pages and data pages. This issue affects 32-bit applications running on 64-bit kernels, where the size of the read-only mmap region can also overflow size t. The fix involves casting the size of the read-only mmap region to u64 and checking for potential overflows during mmap.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
