CVSS v3.1

7.8

High

VectorAV: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: The Linux kernel contains a use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability in the dmabuf exp from pages() function within the Xen component. This issue occurs because a file descriptor can be closed by another thread after being inserted into a descriptor table, leading to a UAF when accessing objects destroyed on close, such as the gntdev dmabuf structure. The dma buf fd() function, used in combination with descriptor reservation and fd install(), is implicated in this vulnerability.
Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
